Where is the liver located in the human body based on the flashcards?

  1. Lower left portion of the abdominal cavity

  2. Upper right portion of the abdominal cavity

  3. Middle of the chest cavity

  4. Behind the knees

The correct answer is: Upper right portion of the abdominal cavity

The liver is an organ located in the upper right portion of the abdominal cavity. It is incorrect to say that it is located in the lower left portion of the abdominal cavity (option A) as this is where the spleen is located. The middle of the chest cavity (option C) is incorrect as this is where the heart and lungs are located. Behind the knees (option D) is also incorrect as this is where the hamstrings are located. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
