What can cause gas and back pain after you eat?
Not good - eating causes the stomach to expand, and if you have a disk problem in the anterior (front) of the spine, the resulting expansion when you eat can be enough to cause this kind of pain.

What does the gallbladder do for the liver in fetal pigs?
The gallbladder is connected to the liver. The liver creates bile which helps in the digestion of fats. The bile is stored in the gallbladder and then the gallbladder excretes it through the common bile duct, into the duodenum (small intestine) where it is put to use. During the storage of the bile, it becomes more concentrated.
In humans, people can develop gallstones (similar to kidney stones in one's kidney) and results in the gallbladder being removed. People can live normally without the gallbladder as it is not an essential organ in the digestive system.
(Note** The digestive system of a pig is almost identical to that of a human)

What does the gallbladder produce?
The Gall Bladder stores and secretes bile. The liver removes bilirubin from the blood, turns it into bile, secretes it into the common bile duct, some goes into the small intestines but most goes into the gall bladder, (the gall bladder is highly absorbent and removes water, thickening and concentrating the bile ), the gall bladder stores the bile (which is used by the intestines to break down fats), and releases the bile when fatty food enters the small intestine from the pyloric sphincter of the stomach. Contraction and secretion of bile by the gallbladder is stimulated by the enzyme cholecystokinin, which is released by the duodenum in response to fats detected in the lumen of the duodenum
