The amount of bile produced by human liver is:

Correct answer: A. 1000ml/day

  • A. 1000ml/day
  • B. 2000ml/day
  • C. 3000ml/day
  • D. 4000ml/day

Explanation

1000ml/day: In a normal person, the liver produces between 800 to 1,000 milliliters of bile each day. This option falls within the plausible range of average daily bile production. While bile production can vary between individuals, this range is generally accepted. The other options suggesting higher volumes of bile production (2000ml/day, 3000ml/day, 4000ml/day) are incorrect as they exceed the typical daily production rates and are unlikely under normal circumstances.
