　　The Liver

　　The liver is the largest gland¹ in the body (approximately 1500 grams) and is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen². It is glossy³ in appearance and dark red in color from the rich supply of blood flowing through it. Approximately 25% of the cardiac output flows to the liver. It performs many important functions:

　　(1)the uptake, storage, and disposal of nutrients⁴ (protein, carbohydrates⁵ and fat), drugs, toxins⁶ and (2)the production of synthetic⁷ proteins (critical for blood clotting) and metabolism⁸ of substances produced by the body.

　　肝脏

　　肝脏是人体最大的腺体（重约1500克），它位于右上腹部。肝脏表面光滑，因血液供应丰富而呈暗红色。大约25%的心输出量流向肝脏。肝脏有许多重要的功能：

　　（1）营养物（蛋白质、碳水化合物和脂肪）、药物和毒素的摄取、储存和代谢。（2）合成蛋白（危急时的血凝块）的产生和机体物质的代谢。
