The pancreatic duct transports secretions from the pancreas to the?
Duodenum
How do the secretions produced by the accessory structures enter the gastrointestinal tract?
Secretions from the liver (bile and enzymes) will pass through the common hepatic duct and reaches the pancreatic duct. pancreatic juices from the pancreas will also flow to the pancreatic duct. both will be flowing to the duodenum through a small opening in the duodenum.
Which section of the small intestine receives secretions from the liver and the pancreas?
The duodenum
What adjusts the pH of chyme entering the duodenum?
bicarbonate-rich secretions from the pancreas
What is the secretions of this gland join with bile to enter the duodenum?
Gall bladder
What organ produces pancreatic juices?
The small intestine (specifically the duodenum)
What ducts that transport emzymes from the pancreas to the duodenum?
The pancreas sends digestive enzymes such as trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, carboxypeptidase, pancreatic lipase and pancreatic amylase to the small intestine via the pancreatic duct. Note that it is also an organ of the endocrine system. This means that in addition to releasing enzymes to the digestive tract, it also secretes hormones (insulin, glucagon, somatostatin) directly into the bloodstream.
What organ sends enzymes via duct in an alkaline fluid into the duodenum?
The pancreas sends enzymes in the alkaline pancreatic juice into the duodenum.
What is Duodenum secreted into?
juices from liver, pancreas, and gallbladder
Is the stomach connected to the pancreas?
The stomach leads into the first part of the small intestine, which is called the duodenum. The pancreas also leads into the duodenum, by a duct (tube) called the pancreatic duct. So both connect to the small intestine, but the stomach does not connect to the pancreas. For a diagram see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancreas
What is the pancreas attached to the small intestine?
pancreas is an independent gland. The pancreas produces pancreatic juice which contains enzymes for digestion. But, the pancreas is connected to the small intestine through the pancreatic duct at the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine connected from the stomach).
Into which part of the alimentary canal does the pancreas secrete pancreatic juice?
The duodenum which is part of the small intestine.
