Does the gallbladder produce or store enzymes?
Neither.The gallbladder will store bile, but bile is not an enzyme. Bile is produced by the liver.
Does the liver produce bile in the digestive system?
YES. and then it will be stored in the gallbladder which is located just below the liver.
How much bile does the gallbladder produce each day?
The gallbladder itself does not produce bile; rather, it stores and concentrates bile produced by the liver. The liver produces about 800 to 1,000 milliliters of bile daily. When needed, the gallbladder releases this bile into the small intestine to aid in digestion, particularly in the emulsification of fats.
What are the four accessory organs of digestion?

Is bile stored in the liver or the gallbladder?
Bile is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder.
What substance is stored and concentrated by the gallbladder for later use?
The gallbladder doesn't actually produce a substance, but it stores bile which helps with digestion and is produced in the liver.
What is the relationship between the liver and the gallbladder?
The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder. When needed, the gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine to help with the digestion and absorption of fats. The gallbladder acts as a reservoir for bile produced by the liver.
What are 3 functions of the liver and what organ do they coordinate with?
The three functions of the liver are: 1) detoxifies chemicals in the body such as alcohol 2) produce substances that break down or convert fats, and glucose 3) secretes bile which is stored in the gallbladder The liver works with the gallbladder to store bile that is made from the liver.
What is the closest organ to the liver?
The closest organ to the liver is the gallbladder. The gallbladder is located under the liver and is connected to the liver by the common bile duct, which carries bile produced by the liver to the gallbladder for storage.
How does a gallbladder tumor convert to a metastatic adenocarcinoma of the liver?
Metastatic adenocarcinoma is adenocarcinoma (a carcinoma that originates in the glands) that has metastacized (moved). In this case, the condition originates in the gallbladder and then moves on to the liver. This is not a diagnosis that is all that unusual. The "how" here is that when things arose in the gallbladder, the blood (circulatory system) acted as a transport. The liver is a frequent site of metastases, though not normally from the gallbladder. This is not an uncommon epidemiological phenomenon. Good luck with further evaluation and treatment.
How does the gallbladder function in relation to the liver?
The gallbladder stores and concentrates bile produced by the liver. When needed, the gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine to help with digestion of fats.
