The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Sphincter of Oddi**: The Sphincter of Oddi is a muscular valve that controls the flow of digestive juices (bile and pancreatic juice) into the small intestine. 2. **Identifying its Location**: The Sphincter of Oddi is located at the junction where the common bile duct and the main pancreatic duct empty into the duodenum, specifically at the ampulla of Vater. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Common Bile Duct** - This duct carries bile from the liver and gallbladder but does not contain the Sphincter of Oddi. - **Option 2: Ampulla of Vater** - This is the correct location where the Sphincter of Oddi is situated as it regulates the flow of bile and pancreatic juice into the duodenum. - **Option 3: Main Pancreatic Duct** - This duct carries pancreatic juices but is not where the Sphincter of Oddi is located. - **Option 4: Common Hepatic Duct** - This duct carries bile from the liver and does not contain the Sphincter of Oddi. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the Sphincter of Oddi is situated in the ampulla of Vater. **Final Answer**: The Sphincter of Oddi is situated in the **Ampulla of Vater** (Option 2). ---
