ANSWER:
Step 1 of 6
The gallbladder is a small pouch-like structure located just under the liver. The bile juice produced by the liver is stored in the gallbladder. Before a meal, the gallbladder may be full of bile and about the size of a pea. After meals, the gallbladder is empty and flat like a deflated balloon. In response to bodily signals, the gallbladder releases the stored bile content.
