GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The gallbladder stores bile, a thick liquid that’s produced by the liver to help us digest fat. When we eat, the gallbladder’s thin, muscular lining squeezes bile into the small intestine through the main bile duct. The more fat we eat, the more bile the gallbladder injects into the digestive tract.

Detailed explanation-2: -The gallbladder is a small, pouch-like organ in the upper right part of your tummy. It stores bile, a fluid produced by the liver that helps break down fatty foods. You don’t need a gallbladder, so surgery to take it out is often recommended if you develop any problems with it.

Detailed explanation-3: -The gallbladder serves the following three functions: It stores bile, it concentrates bile, and, when stimulated to contract, it ejects bile into the lumen of the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is the gallbladder? The gallbladder is a small organ that stores bile. It is attached to your digestive system by a system of hollow ducts called the biliary tree. The gallbladder sits in an indenture underneath the right lobe of the liver.

Detailed explanation-5: -Bile is secreted when the gallbladder contracts. This happens as a response to: Fatty food content, combined with gastric distension (outpouching of the stomach due to a high volume of food content) A hormone called cholecystokinin (CCK), which is released when food enters the small intestine from the stomach.
