Where does the bile go without a gallbladder?

QUESTION
Does the liver continue to produce bile without a gallbladder and where does it go?

ANSWER

They have the bile duct that goes from the liver to the small intestine, like a slow IV drip to the small intestine. Those without a gallbladder need to eat more often to give the small intestine something to do as too much bile will cause diarrhea.
