Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The ____ duct is where bile coming from the liver passes to the gallbladder and the ____ duct is where bile leaves to the duodenum.”
A
hepatic
B
cystic
C
bile
D
pancreatic
E
sphincter
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These ducts ultimately drain into the common hepatic duct. The common hepatic duct then joins with the cystic duct from the gallbladder to form the common bile duct. This runs from the liver to the duodenum (the first section of the small intestine).

Detailed explanation-2: -The two ducts join outside the liver and form the common hepatic duct. The cystic duct from the gallbladder joins the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct. The common bile duct passes through the pancreas and ends in the small intestine. Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder.

Detailed explanation-3: -During digestion, bile is released by the gallbladder into the cystic duct. The cystic duct joins with the common hepatic duct to form the bile duct. Bile then travels through the bile duct towards the duodenum of the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bile passes out of the liver through the bile ducts and is stored in the gallbladder. After a meal, it is released into the small intestine. When the bile ducts become blocked, bile builds up in the liver, and jaundice (yellow color of the skin) develops due to the increasing level of bilirubin in the blood.
