Assertion (A): The gallbladder is an important organ for the digestive system.
Reason (R): The gallbladder is responsible for storing and releasing bile, which aids in the digestion and absorption of fats.
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are the true and Reason (R) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are the true but Reason (R) is not a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Assertion (A) is true and Reason (R) is false.
Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is true.
By storing and secreting bile, a fluid created by the liver to aid in the digestion and absorption of lipids, the gallbladder plays a critical role in the digestive system. The liver would continue to produce bile in the absence of the gallbladder, which would result in an accumulation of extra bile and digestive issues. As a result, the gallbladder is a vital organ for preserving healthy digestive function. Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
