are absorbed into the lymphatic system through lacteals.

“a single villus contains?” - a lacteal (PQ.)

9
New cards

Know the functions of the liver (Ch.26)

13
New cards

Trace of bile as it leaves the liver and eventually turns into Bile Salts (found in notes) (Ch.26)

  1. Bile is made in the liver

  2. Travels down the common hepatic duct

  3. Moves into the cystic duct
