Does a liver or pancreas produce bile?

No. The gallbladder only stores the bile that is produced in the liver. Your gallbladder only stores the bile. Your liver produces it. Since the bile is required to absorb fats through your intestines among other things you need it to live. Without the storage tank that only holds around a cup, Without it, it will just get secreted right to intestines but its not as effecient that way so you are better off with one but can live without it.
