A person without a gallbladder

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A person without a gallbladder can still secrete bile from the liver, but they cannot store it in the gallbladder. This means that they will have difficulty digesting a large, fat-rich meal because there may not be enough bile available to emulsify the fats. Therefore, both options D - cannot store bile and will have difficulty digesting a large, fat-rich meal are correct. Option A, that a person without a gallbladder cannot secrete bile, is incorrect because they can still secrete it from the liver. Option E, that all of the choices are correct, is also incorrect because option B, that a person without a gallbladder cannot store bile, is only partially correct.
