Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

When food enters the small intestine, the gallbladder is triggered by the hormone cholecystokinin (which is produced by intestinal mucosal glands when fats enter) to release bile. Bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gall bladder. Bile aids in digestion by emulsifying fat. This allows the body to absorb fat more easily.
