Solution

The correct option is B

Small intestine


The correct option is B.

Explanation of correct option:

  1. The small intestine receives bile from your liver.
  2. This bile is later stored within the gallbladder, which executes two different functions – making food alkaline and breaking down its fat content.
  3. The partially digested food is absorbed by the duodenum of the small intestine along with the digestive juices from the liver, pancreas, and its walls

Explanation of incorrect option:

Stomach and large intestine do not receive bile from the liver.

Final answer: Small intestine is the part of the alimentary canal that receives bile from the liver.
