No... The liver does... Then the bile is stored in the gallbladder.
No. The liver produces bile. The spleen assists in the filtration of red blood cells (RBC), removing RBC's that are close to 90-120 days old.

∙ 13y agobladder is pretty much a word for pouch. The gallbladderSTORES the bile made by the liver. The bladder stores the urine made by the kidney.

∙ 12y agoYes, the Gall Bladder produces the bile which is then stored in the liver and then, when needed, passes through the bile duct into the small intestine to act on the food mass.

What is the organ called that releases digestive juices into the small intestine?
Yes, it releases digestive juice into small intestine. The common bile duct join the pancreatic duct, the bile from common bile duct and pancreatic juice from pancreatic duct empty into duodenum (of small intestine) through the sphincter of oddi (valve) if it is opened. The opening of this valve is controlled by a hormone called Cholecystokinin.
What is the name of the digestion juice?
the exocrine secretions of the gastric cells, together with a large amount of water form a highly acidic solution called gastric juice.
What organ secretes buffers needed to neutralize the acidity of chyme and also secretes digestive enzymes?
Cells that line the stomach produce gastric acids. The other cells found in the stomach are also the ones that produce a fluid called a bicarbonate, which is a base, to neutralize stomach acid.
What is the function of the intestinal gland?
Its function is to complete the process begun by the pancreatic juice.
What hormones control digestion?
The hormones that control digestion are as follows: 1.Gastrin - The stretching of the stomach wall and the presence of food in the stomach stimulates the production of gastrin by the gastric mucosa. The target organs of gastrin are the gastric glands which are stimulated to produce gastric juice and also secretion of HCl. 2.Cholecystokinin (CCK) - The duodenal mucosa secretes CCK in response to the presence of partially digested fats and proteins present in the chyme. The functions of CCK is to inhibit emptying of stomach, synthesis of digestive enzymes by pancreas and contraction of gall bladder. Thus the target organs are stomach, pancreas and gall bladder. 3.Secretin - Secretin is also secreted by the duodenal mucosa, in response to the presence of acidified chyme in the duodenum. The functions of secretin are to inhibit the production of gastric juice and stimulate the production of hydrogencarbonate ions in the pancreatic and bile juice. Thus the target organs of secretin are stomach, pancreas and liver respectively
What organ passes a digestive juice into the duodenum?
gall bladder
What is stored in the gallbladder of a frog?
It is similar to the function of the gall bladder of a human. They both are used to store the bile, a digestive juice, that is created by the liver. When needed for digestion, the gall bladder secretes a small amount to aid in the breaking down of the food (specifically the emulsification of fats).
What does the liver produce that moves into gallbladder?
The liver produces bile juice that is stored temporarily in the gall bladder.
What is the organ called that releases digestive juices into the small intestine?
Yes, it releases digestive juice into small intestine. The common bile duct join the pancreatic duct, the bile from common bile duct and pancreatic juice from pancreatic duct empty into duodenum (of small intestine) through the sphincter of oddi (valve) if it is opened. The opening of this valve is controlled by a hormone called Cholecystokinin.
What effect does cholecystokinin have on the pancreas?
cholecystokinin, which stimulates the pancreas to produce a pancreatic juice that is rich in digestive enzymes
Which digestive juice acts only on proteins?
Pepsin is the "digestive juice" that digests proteins.
Is stomach digestive juice acidic or alkaline?
Stomach digestive juice is quite acidic.
Why gullet does not produce digestive juice?
It is just a tube to allow the food bits to get into the stomach. Food doesn't need to be digested in this part of the digestive system.
What is a juice containing digestive enzymes?
Orange juice
Where is bile produced by the liver and stored?
Bile is stored in the gall bladder after it is secreted from the liver.
Is tissue a digestive juice?
no
What digestive juice does the liver add to the digestive system?
Bile
