Answer Key / Explanation : (b) -

(b)

In liver, right and left hepatic ducts join to form a common hepatic duct which joins the duct of gall bladder (cystic duct), forming a common bile duct or ductus choledocus.  The later opens into the proximal part of duodenum through a valvular pore guarded by sphincter called sphincter of Oddi.
