Explain why a person without a gallbladder is unable to digest fats as efficiently as someone who has a gallbladder?
The gallbladder stores and releases bile, which helps in the digestion and absorption of fats. Without a gallbladder, there is no storage site for bile, leading to a continuous but lower flow of bile into the digestive system. This can result in insufficient bile to properly emulsify fats and impair their digestion and absorption, leading to digestive issues like diarrhea and fatty stools.
