The liver produces bile which emulsifies (separates) fat.
Reproductive (haploid) cells known as gametes have half as many (23) pairs of chromosomes as normal (diploid) cells. When the male gamete (sperm) combines with the female gamete (ovum) through meiosis to form a zygote, each gamete supplies half the chromosomes needed to form the normal diploid cells.
Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
