    - - attached posteriorly by mesentery
    - - can prevent overfilling by controlling how much chyme enters
        
        curves around head of pancreas
    - - digestive function is production of bile
    - - chief function is storage of bile
    - - supplies most of enzymes needed to digest chyme
        
        as well as bicarbonate to neutralize stomach acid

      - stomach
        
        starts chemical breakdown of protein digestion
        
        converts bolus of food to paste like chyme
      - small intestine
        
        major organ of digestion and absorption
      - large intestine
