Yes, both the salivary gland and the pancreas secrete amylase. Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates into smaller sugar molecules.

In the pancreas, amylase is produced and released into the small intestine to further break down starches into simpler sugars.
What organ is NOT known to secrete a lipase?

Secretin causes the release of what?
It stimulates the liver to secrete bile.
Give the names of three organs in the human body that secrete the enzyme amylase?

Which organs secrete fluids into the small intestine?
