The human liver is located at the top of the abdomen, on the right side of the body just below the diaphragm. The lower part of the rib cage covers the liver and protects it from injury. A normal adult liver weighs about 1.5 kg and is about 15 cm thick.

On the right side of your abdomen next to your stomach.

The liver is located primarily in the upper right quadrant just below the diaphragm, mostly under the ribs. However, it also extends across the middle of the upper abdomen and part way into the left upper abdomen. The liver consists of two main parts (a larger right lobe and a smaller left lobe) and two minor lobes. During inspiration (breathing in), the liver is pushed down by the diaphragm and the lower edge of the liver descends below the margin of the lowest rib (costal margin).

The liver is located in the lower part of the human body near the abdomen. It is the organ that helps filters out bad things before passing it onto the kidney of the body. It is near the backside of the human body.

The liver is located under your diaphragm, thats under your lungs.

The liver is located in the upper right quadrant of the abdominal cavity. It is the largest internal organ and is found to the right of the stomach.

Abdominal cavity. Its just below your sternum, about 1 inch below your chest. If you lay your hand flat against your body and place your thumb to the bottom of your right nipple, the lower half of your hand will be covering the right lobe (larger part) of your liver. the main lobe is in the right side of your body, but it extends almost all the way across your body from right side to the smaller left "lobe" on the left side (the whole organ is attached and doesn't look like separate lobes).
