the enzyme that is secreted is lipase.

lipase is secreted in the pancreas where it is moved into the duodenum through the common bile duct. lipase is also secreted by the intestinal walls of the small intestine.there are funger like projections called villi. between 2 villi there are glandular pits where the succus entericus is secreted.lipase is in the succus entericus along with other enzymes.
