LIVER

The liver is the largest gland in the human body. It lies under the short ribs on the right side of the upper part of the abdomen below the diaphragm; it is convex on the upper surface and concave below, and is composed of four lobes. The liver has three functions: it secretes bile, stores glycogen and converts waste products into urea and uric acid for excretion.
