C

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The gallbladder stores and concentrates bile from the liver. The bile is then released into the first section of the small intestine (the duodenum), where it helps your body to break down and absorb fats from food.

Detailed explanation-2: -It’s made in your liver and stored in your gallbladder until your body needs it for digestion. Bile helps your body separate nutrients it needs from toxins and waste, which are removed in your feces. If bile flow slows or stops due to disease or inflammation, bilirubin can build up and lead to jaundice.

Detailed explanation-3: -Aids in the digestion of fat via fat emulsification. Absorption of fat and fat-soluble vitamins. Excretion of bilirubin and excess cholesterol. Provides an alkaline fluid in the duodenum to neutralize the acidic pH of the chyme that comes from the stomach. More items •12-Sept-2022
