 * III. Digestive: **
 * 1) 1. Compare and contrast the various organs and their order through the body. What role does each of them play (function, physical or chemical action?)

- The organs in the body of a pig are the closest to that of humans. The functions of each organ does the same of what is in the human body:
 * Liver-** the role that a liver plays is to detoxify the body, perform protein synthesis, and aids in the production of biochemical’s necessary for digestion.
 * Spleen-** removes old red blood cells and holds a reserve of blood in case of hemorrhagic shock, while also simultaneously recycling iron.
 * Lungs-** allows you to breath.
 * Kidneys-** are essential in the urinary system and also serve in the regulation of electrolytes, maintenance of acid-base balance, and regulation of blood pressure (by maintaining salt and water balance). They are basically the body’s main filter.
 * Stomach-** one of the most important organs in the Digestive System. It aids in the Production of Stomach Acids that break down the food that is eaten, then moves it through the intestines.
 * Intestines-** they aid in the digesting of food and while doing so they absorb nutrients that are in the digested food.


 * 1) 2. Which organisms have similar organs in the digestive system? How does that compare to the types of food that they eat?
 * - the crawfish and the fetal pig are the closest in organs being closely related. They all do just about the same functions.**
 * 1) 3. How is the organ adapted to provide as many reactions as possible in the shortest amount of space?
 * - The organs in the body of a pig are smaller and therefore have to have different adaptations than that of a human.**
 * 1) 4. How are the same design features found in the parts of the cell as well as in other organisms and the environment?**-**
 * - im not SURE ???**
