Bile travels through the liver in a series of ducts, eventually exiting through the common hepatic duct.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bile is essential for digesting fats and for eliminating worn-out red blood cells and certain toxins from your body. Bile is produced in your liver and stored in your gallbladder.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bile is a fundamental and unique secretion of the liver.

After its secretion, bile is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder.
