Correct Answer: Gall bladder


Solution : The correct option is Gall bladder.

Bile is a digestive fluid that the liver produces, and stores in the gallbladder, a tiny organ found under the liver. It assists in fat digestion, and absorption by emulsifying them into smaller droplets, increasing their surface area for efficient enzyme digestion. Bile is often yellow to greenish-yellow in colour because of the presence of bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. Lipase is a major enzyme present in bile that aids in fat digestion by breaking it down into smaller molecules that may be absorbed in the intestines.
