The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are correct, let's analyze each one step by step: **Step 1: Analyze Statement I** - **Statement I:** Glisson's capsule is a characteristic feature of the mammalian liver. - **Explanation:** Glisson's capsule is indeed the fibrous covering of the liver and is a characteristic feature of mammalian livers. Therefore, this statement is **correct**. **Step 2: Analyze Statement II** - **Statement II:** The opening of the hepatopancreatic ampulla is guarded by the sphincter of Oddi. - **Explanation:** The sphincter of Oddi regulates the flow of bile and pancreatic juice into the duodenum from the hepatopancreatic ampulla. Thus, this statement is also **correct**. **Step 3: Analyze Statement III** - **Statement III:** Fatty acids and glycerol cannot reach the bloodstream directly. - **Explanation:** Fatty acids and glycerol are components of fats that are absorbed through the intestinal lining into the lymphatic system as chylomicrons before entering the bloodstream. Therefore, this statement is **correct**. **Step 4: Analyze Statement IV** - **Statement IV:** Fatty acids and glycerol are insoluble in water. - **Explanation:** Fatty acids and glycerol are indeed insoluble in water, as they are lipids. They are soluble in organic solvents. Hence, this statement is also **correct**. **Conclusion:** All four statements are correct. **Final Answer:** All statements (I, II, III, and IV) are correct. ---
