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.
Organs that make up the GI tract are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestineâwhich includes the appendix, cecum, colon, and rectumâand anus. The intestines are sometimes called the bowel. The last part of the GI tractâcalled the lower GI tractâconsists of the large intestine and anus. Anatomic problems of the lower GI tract may involve parts of organs being in the wrong place, shaped abnormally, or incorrectly connected to other organs. Anatomic problems that affect the large intestine or anus include. malrotation. volvulus. intussusception. fistula. imperforate anus. colonic atresia.
