1. Gall  Bladder Disease The Function of the Gall Bladder Because fat cannot be dissolved in water, a special system has evolved for its digestion and its absorption through the intestinal wall. Bile is an essential factor in this, since it contains substances that allow fats to be emulsified. edu

From Wikipedia The gallbladder is a hollow system that sits just beneath the liver.[2] In adults, the gallbladder measures approximately 8 cm in length and 4 cm in diameter when fully distended.[3] It is divided into three sections: fundus, body and neck. The neck tapers and connects to the biliary tree via the cystic duct, which then joins the common hepatic duct to become the common bile duct.
