(a) Make a rough sketch of the visceral surface of the liver, and label the following five structures: fissure, porta hepatis, inferior vena cava, gallbladder, caudate lobe. (b) To follow up on part (a), it is easy to learn the structure of the visceral surface of the liver if you can find and mark the big H there. To mark the left vertical limb of the H, draw a line through the fissure. To mark the crossbar of the H, draw a horizontal line through the porta hepatis. Then, to mark the right limb of the H, draw a continuous vertical line through the inferior vena cava and gallbladder. Which two lobes are inside the H? Which limb of the H separates the liver’s right and left lobes?
(a) List the three major vessels of the portal triad, and describe the location of this triad with respect to the liver lobule. (b) Name three organelles that are abundant within hepatocytes, and explain how each of these organelles contributes to liver functions.
Describe the flow of blood to and through the liver.Describe the flow of bile away from the liver.
