Question

Identify an organ
A) Ovum
B) Zygote
C) Liver
D) Epithelium

Answer 1

Hint: In order to serve a popular purpose, an organ is a series of tissues joined into a structural unit. In most multicellular species, organs exist, including not only humans and other animals, but plants as well. The functional counterpart of an organ is an organelle in single-celled organisms, such as bacteria.

Complete Answer:
- Five organs are present in the human body that are considered essential for life. The five organs are the heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and lungs. If any of the five essential organs fail to function, without medical intervention, the death of the organism is inevitable.
- The most significant organ of the metabolic system is the liver. It helps to convert nutrients into usable substances, detoxifies those substances, and channels blood through a vein flowing from the digestive tract until it joins the flow of venous blood from other areas of the body. Via an artery, oxygenated blood enters the liver.
- To carry bile to the tiny intestine, the liver partners with the gallbladder. The liver pours bile into the gallbladder, which, when the body requires it to assist with digestion, then retains and later releases the bile.

- In human physiology, the ovum is a single cell released from one of the female reproductive organs, the ovaries, which, when fertilised (united) with a sperm cell, will grow into a new organism.

- Zygote is a fertilised egg cell arising from the union of a male gamete (sperm) with a female gamete (egg, or ovum).

- Epithelium is the thin tissue that forms the outer layer of the surface of a body and lines the food duct and other hollow structures.

Thus the correct answer is option(C) Liver.

Note: Organs are the identifiable components of the body (for instance, the heart, lungs, liver, eyes, and stomach) that perform particular functions. An organ consists of many tissue types and, hence, many cell types.
