The left lobe is the larger and is itself deeply cleft into two. Between the right and left lobes lies the gall-bladder, which receives the green bile secreted by the liver and passes it by the bile-duct into the duodenum. The pancreas is an oblong, creamy-white structure lying between the stomach and duodenum. It is traversed by the bile-duct, into which it passes the pancreatic juice which it secretes. The food is not chewed, but is swallowed whole, the only use of the teeth being to prevent the escape of the.
