The second is Euchre, which at one point in its evolution was played with a 25-card deck using a special card, and this card was the highest in the trump suit (top bower). The special card got the name Juker, which was Anglicized to Joker. Incidentally, Euchre is no longer played with the 25th card.
Home > Digestive System > Digestive System of the Lower Torso > Intestines. The intestines are vital organs in the gastrointestinal tract of our digestive system. Their functions are to digest food and to enable the nutrients released from that food to enter into the bloodstream. Our intestines consist of two major subdivisions: the small intestine and the large intestine.
The abdomen contains all the digestive organs, including the stomach, small and large intestines, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. These organs are held together loosely by connecting tissues (mesentery) that allow them to expand and to slide against each other. The abdomen also contains the kidneys and spleen. Many important blood vessels travel through the abdomen, including the aorta, inferior vena cava, and dozens of their smaller branches.
