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.
Gastrointestinal (GI) & Genitourinary (GU) Procedures The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) houses many important organs that play an essential role in the digestion of food. These organs include the mouth, esophagus, liver, stomach, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine, and large intestine. The rectum and anus, located within the large intestine, are included in the GI tract. The genitourinary tract (GU tract) is comprised of the urinary and reproductive organs. These organs include the kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and male reproductive organs (testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and penis).
