Tissue Engineering Questions and Answers – Liver Biology

This set of Tissue Engineering Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Liver Biology”.

1. The liver is the largest gland in the body, weighing roughly _____________ in human adults.
a) 1.0–1.5 kg
b) 2.0-5.0 kg
c) 3.0 kg
d) 10.0 kg
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The liver is the biggest organ in the body, weighing generally 1.0–1.5 kg in human grown-ups. This mind boggling organ assumes a significant job in starch, protein and lipid digestion, just as the blend and emission of blood and bile parts and the detoxification of blood.

2. The liver is situated beneath the ___________
a) diaphragm
b) stomach
c) intestine
d) spleen
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The liver is situated underneath the stomach, principally in the upper right quadrant of the mid-region. It is encompassed by a smooth container of connective tissue named Glisson’s case.

3. About 25% of the total liver blood flow comes from the hepatic artery.
a) TRUE
b) FALSE
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: About 25% of the all out liver blood stream originates from the hepatic corridor, while the staying 75% gets from the gateway vein, which depletes the splanchnic viscera (stomach, digestive organs, and spleen).

4. The liver produces a large volume of lymph.
a) TRUE
b) FALSE
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The liver delivers an enormous volume of lymph. The body’s lymphatic framework procedures up to 8 l of lymph for every day and as much as half of this lymph originates from the liver.

5. The hepatic lobule can be divided into three distinct zones.
a) TRUE
b) FALSE
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Practically, the hepatic lobule can be separated into three particular zones: the peri-entryway locale (zone 1) at the lobule fringe, the mid-lobular area (zone 2), and the peri-focal district (zone 3) encompassing the focal vein. The zones are numbered as per the course of blood move through the lobule, entering by means of the vessels in the peri-entrance district and leaving by means of the focal vein.

6. Hepatic sinusoids, the specialized “capillaries” of the liver, are oriented radially and carry blood from the perimeter of the lobule toward the central vein.
a) TRUE
b) FALSE
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Hepatic sinusoids, the specific “vessels” of the liver, are arranged radially and convey blood from the border of the lobule toward the focal vein. The focal veins, situated along with the pivot of the lobule, eventually channel into the hepatic veins which void into the second rate vena cava. The hepatic sinusoids get blood from both hepatic blood vessels and gateway venous inflow sources.
