Which stores bile produced by the liver?

• A. Pancreas function
• B. Gallbladder function
• C. Liver function
• D. Spleen function

Answer: (B)

Bile production and storage involve two organs: the liver and the gallbladder. The liver continuously produces bile, which then travels through ducts to the gallbladder, where it is stored and concentrated. When you eat a fatty meal, the gallbladder contracts and releases bile into the small intestine to help emulsify fats. The pancreas has the role of producing digestive enzymes, and the spleen is involved in immune function and blood filtration. So, while bile is produced by the liver, its storage and concentration occur in the gallbladder, making the gallbladder the correct answer.
