GALLBLADDER
Gallbladder
In vertebrates the gallbladder is a small organ where bile is stored, before it is released into the small intestine. In humans, the loss of the gallbladder, in most cases, is easily tolerated by the body. The surgical removal of the gallbladder is called a cholecystectomy.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Gallbladder
