an essential part of the urinary system and also serve homeostatic functions such as the regulation of electrolytes, maintenance of acid-base balance, and regulation of blood pressure. Serve the body as a natural filter of the blood, and remove wastes which are diverted to the urinary bladder.
Mercury combines with bile and can cause bile from the gallbladder to become more alkaline, providing a favorable environment for parasites. These parasites can plug up the hepatic or bile duct so that needed digestive and other enzymes from the gallbladder, liver, and pancreas are not released.
There are a couple of reasons why Mercury is a liquid at STP, I will go through each of them with an explanation that won't be too complex for your understanding. First of all understanding why most metals are metallic is a good place to start. This happens because of the sharing of valence electrons. The sharing of these electrons make metals malleable and ductile and thus not liquid. Generally the more the electrons shared means the higher the melting point and a harder metal. OK, getting into the Mercury.
