QUESTION:

The gallbladder provides ________ that aid(s) in the transport of lipids across the intestinal membrane.

a. lipases

b. cholesterol

c. proteins

d. bile salts

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.
