Question

Because of gall stones, Fred had his gallbladder surgically removed. Which of the following is the most likely side effect?

a. difficulty with protein digestion
b. difficulty with feces production
c. difficulty with vitamin B12 absorption
d. difficulty with fat digestion
e. difficulty with bile production

Answer 1

d. difficulty with fat digestion

Step-by-step explanation:

The gallbladder is an accessory gland that stores bile produced in the liver, so option "e" is not possible. Bile is a type of enzyme that helps to break down fats which makes option "d" as the best option. Protein digestion is mainly by different enzymes known as proteases. Feces are formed in the short intestine.
