● The diaphragm is an internal skeletal muscle membrane which divides the abdomen from the thorax or chest which contains the heart and lungs. As it expands and enlarges the chest cavity, thediaphragm plays a major role in breathing, creating a vacuum that pulls air into the lungs.

● The gallbladder is a thin pouch that lies just below the liver. This gallbladder stores bile formed by the liver. The gallbladder squeezes bile contained in the small intestine through a series of tubes called ducts in response to signals.

● The liver is a large, meaty organ found on the right side of the abdomen. The liver weighs about 3 pounds and is reddish-brown in colour, feeling rubbery to the touch. You can't normally feel the liver, because it is shielded by the rib cage. The liver has two large sections, called lobes on the right and on the left.

• The pancreas is a gland organ that secretes enzymes, or digestive juices, into the small intestine through thepancreas. There, food which has left the stomach continues to break down. And secretes the hormone insulin into the blood stream, where it regulates the amount of glucose or sugar in the body.

● The peritoneum is the serous membrane that develops in amniotes and some invertebrates, such as annelides, the lining of the abdominal cavity or coelome. This protects most of the intra-abdominal (or coelomic) organs, and is composed of a mesothelium layer protected by a thin connective tissue layer.

● The small intestine is organ which is present in the gastrointestinal tract, in which most nutrients and minerals are ingested from food. It lies between the stomach and the large intestine, and absorbs bile which pancreatic juice to help with digestion through the pancreatic duct.

● The spleen is an organ present in almost all vertebrate animals. Similar to a large lymph node in shape, it mainly serves as a conduit for blood.

● Stomach, saclike extension of the digestive system, between the esophagus and the small intestine; in most vertebrates, it is found in the anterior part of the abdominal cavity. Until moving into the intestine, the stomach acts as a temporary receptacle for storage and mechanical distribution of food.
