Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The round ligament is a remnant of the umbilical vein, which carries oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus during development. In adults, the round ligament serves no functional purpose but can be used as a landmark during surgery or imaging of the liver. The coronary ligament attaches the liver to the diaphragm, the falciform ligament separates the right and left lobes of the liver, Kupffer cells are macrophages located in the liver sinusoids, and bile ductules are small ducts within the liver that transport bile.
