Digestive system:

Acid reflux: An unpleasant situation in which acids disgorge from the stomach into the esophagus. It is also referred to as GERD "gastroesophageal reflux disease".

Gallbladder:The organ that operates in combination with the liver and pancreas to supports with food digestion.

Loop of Henle:Henle's loop is the "U" shaped part of the renal tubule.

is the functional unit of the kidneys.

Nephron:The nephron is divided into the renal corpuscle and the renal tubule.

The renal corpuscle is the filter.

The renal tubule drains urine that has been processed into the collecting tubules which carry the urine to the renal pelvis.
