AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The pancreas makes enzymes that help digest proteins, fats, and carbs. It also makes a substance that neutralizes stomach acid. These enzymes and bile travel through special pathways (called ducts) into the small intestine, where they help to break down food. The liver also helps process nutrients in the bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your pancreas creates natural juices called pancreatic enzymes to break down foods. These juices travel through your pancreas via ducts. They empty into the upper part of your small intestine called the duodenum. Each day, your pancreas makes about 8 ounces of digestive juice filled with enzymes.

Detailed explanation-3: -stomach (and duodenum) small intestine (or small bowel) colon (or large intestine/bowel) and rectum.

Detailed explanation-4: -The pancreas contains exocrine glands that produce enzymes important to digestion. These enzymes include trypsin and chymotrypsin to digest proteins; amylase for the digestion of carbohydrates; and lipase to break down fats.

Detailed explanation-5: -We have learned that the liver makes bile, which is important for digestion but is not an enzyme. So the organ that does not produce any digestive enzymes is the liver.
