Detailed explanation-3: -Bile is a complex aqueous secretion that originates from hepatocytes and is modified distally by absorptive and secretory transport systems in the bile duct epithelium. Bile then enters the gallbladder where it is concentrated or is delivered directly to the intestinal lumen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. When food is being digested, bile is released from the gallbladder and passes through the pancreas into the small intestine, where it helps digest fats.
