Apply Your Knowledge
1. What is the route of bile through the liver and
gallbladder?
ANSWER: Bile is made in the hepatocytes and leaves the liver
through the hepatic duct. The hepatic duct merges with the
cystic duct from the gallbladder to form the common bile
duct, which delivers bile to the duodenum.
