Metabolic Organs

• Learn about key biochemical and physiological functions of the liver, small intestine, kidney, heart, skeletal muscles, bone marrow, pancreas, stomach, lungs and brain.

• Learn the important biochemical metabolic pathways, metabolites, enzymes and hormones that are responsible for the function of the organs and for the exchange of substances within and between the organs.

• Tap on blue highlighted text passages or on green bordered buttons to get additional information.

• The operation is self-explanatory and intuitively understandable.
