Explanation
Answer - E - The pancreas is considered a solid organ. The pancreas is a gland involved in both the digestive and endocrine systems. All of the other organs listed above are considered hollow organs. The gallbladder helps in digestion and stores bile produced by the liver. The stomach serves as the major digestive organ in humans, but the small intestine is where the last steps of digestion occur, as well as where absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream occurs.
