The digestive function of the liver is to produce bile, which is a fat emulsifier. Bile is a yellow-green, alkaline solution containing bile salts, bile pigments (primarily bilirubin), cholesterol, neutral fats, phospholipids, and a variety of electrolytes.he digestive function of the liver is to produce bile, which is a fat emulsifier.

The use of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is a problem because the burning of these fuels in industry, transport and the generation of electricity releases carbon dioxide (CO2).This is causing global warming and climate change.: The combustion (burning) of fossil fuels releases poisonous gases into the atmosphere. Oil/Petrol, for instance, is a Hydrocarbon (a mix of Carbon and Hydrogen atoms) and when burnt with Oxygen creates Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide.
Fossil fuels are important as they can be burned to provide heat. However fossil fuel resources are irreplaceable and limited in supply. That is why there are alternative energy sources being considered. Besides, fossil fuels are known to contribute to greenhouse effect.
