ANSWER:

Liver is the large organ "located above the stomach" and helps to digest food and clean the blood.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The Liver filters the blood that comes from the digestive tract. This filtered blood is then carried to all other parts of the body.
  • The liver also secretes bile juice that helps to breakdown the fats from the food thereby aiding the digestion of food.
  • It is important for the liver to remain healthy so that it can function in the right manner.
  • If there are problems with the functioning of the liver, the body may develop several health problems.
