Describe the blood flow to the liver (both arterial and venous) and how it differs from what is typically seen in most organs.
What specific layer(s) must substances cross to enter the blood or lymphatic capillaries during their absorption?
Part Two: Describe the TWO blood vessel pathways needed to get food to the cells in your FINGERS
from the LIVER and to the KIDNEYS from the LIVER, so that food can be obtained AND waste can be
removed. Begin at the sinusoids of the liver (capillaries) and end at capillaries at the desired stopping
place.
Path from LIVER to FINGERS (so fingers can get food! That's why you ate in the first place!):
Path from LIVER to KIDNEYS (so kidneys can get rid of waste liver has produced. Remember that
beverage and the sandwich? There's probably preservatives and other molecules you absorb but can't
use.):
