None of the above
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: -Bile is a physiological aqueous solution produced and secreted by the liver. It consists mainly of bile salts, phospholipids, cholesterol, conjugated bilirubin, electrolytes, and water [1]. Bile travels through the liver in a series of ducts, eventually exiting through the common hepatic duct.

Detailed explanation-3: -The liver also produces about 800 to 1, 000 milliliters (27 to 34 fluid ounces) of bile each day. 3 Bile is secreted by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, a small organ attached to the underside of the liver. During meals, bile is released from the gallbladder through a tube called the common bile duct.
