胆嚢, 胆囊
a small, pear-shaped organ located beneath the liver in which the body stores a strong digestive fluid produced by the liver
例
The gallbladder plays a crucial role in the digestive process by storing bile produced by the liver until it's needed for digestion.
胆嚢は、肝臓で生成された胆汁を消化に必要になるまで貯蔵することにより、消化過程で重要な役割を果たします。
When fatty foods are consumed, the gallbladder contracts and releases bile into the small intestine to help emulsify fats and aid in their digestion.
脂肪分の多い食品が摂取されると、胆嚢が収縮し、胆汁を小腸に放出して脂肪を乳化し、消化を助けます。
