The gallbladder is important for storing and concentrating bile, which aids in the digestion of fats. However, humans can live without it, as the liver continues to produce bile that can flow directly into the small intestine. While its absence may lead to digestive changes and difficulties in fat digestion, many people adapt over time. Therefore, while it plays a supportive role in digestion, it is not essential for survival.
