Detailed explanation-1: -The digestive enzymes (such as amylase, lipase, and trypsin) are released from the cells of the acini and flow into the pancreatic duct. The pancreatic duct joins the common bile duct at the ampulla of Vater, where both flow into the duodenum.
Detailed explanation-2: -The duodenum produces hormones and receives secretions from the liver (bile) and pancreas (pancreatic juice containing digestive enzymes). These various hormones, fluids and enzymes facilitate chemical digestion in the duodenum while also ensuring the acidity of chyme coming from the stomach is neutralised.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your main pancreatic duct connects with your bile duct. This duct transports bile from your liver to your gallbladder. From the gallbladder, the bile travels to part of your small intestine called the duodenum. Both the bile and the pancreatic enzymes enter your duodenum to break down food.
