Organelles would be especially abundant in the pancreatic cells that PRODUCE enzymes?

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum would be responsible for the synthesis of protein (peptide enzymes) in the exocrine pancreatic cells. Also, synthesis of protein requires energy. It is also natural to see abundant mitochondria in the exocrine pancreatic cells.


Is pancreatic fluid an enzyme?

Pancreatic fluid is not an enzyme itself, but it contains many enzymes produced by the pancreas, such as amylase, lipase, and proteases. These enzymes are responsible for breaking down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the small intestine to aid in digestion.


How do pancreatic enzymes participate in the digestion of starches?

Pancreatic enzymes, like amylase, help break down starches into smaller molecules like maltose. This process occurs in the small intestine, where the enzymes further break down the starches into simpler sugars that can be absorbed by the body.


How does pancreatic juices aid digestion?

Pancreatic enzymes assist digestion of all three major types of nutrients- proteins, carbohydrates and fats.The pancreatic enzymes that assist digestion of the above nutrients are as follows:Proteins - Trypsin, chymotrypsin & carboxypolypeptidaseCarbohydrates - Pancreatic amylaseFats - Pancreatic lipase, cholesterol esterase & phospholipase


Pancreatic enzymes are secreted in response to the hormone?

Pancreatic enzymes are secreted in response to the hormone cholecystokinin (CCK). This hormone is released in response to the presence of food in the small intestine, stimulating the pancreas to release enzymes that help digest fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.

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 do pancreatic enzymes digest?
