The pancreas releases lipase to digest fats
It has to be alkaline. As the Stomach is Acidic (pH2-3) and the Duodenum and Small Intestine are Alkaline (pH 9-10) due to the introduction of Bile from the Gallbladder.
Cholecystokinin
Lipase is primarily produced in the pancreas, where it is released into the small intestine to help break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol for absorption. Small amounts of lipase are also produced in the mouth and stomach.
The gallbladder doesn't actually produce a substance, but it stores bile which helps with digestion and is produced in the liver.
The pancreas releases lipase, which helps digest fats in the small intestine
The gallbladder is the reservoir for bile in the body. Bile produced by the liver is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help with the digestion of fats.
The gallbladder is the sac-like structure under the liver that stores about 30-50 ml of bile. The liver produces bile, and the gallbladder stores it. From there it is excreted, travels down the bile duct, where it passes through the pancreas, which produces lipase (which does break down fat), before it goes into your small intestine. The gallbladder releases bile into the duodenum, part of the small intestine, to aid in the digestion of fats. Bile emulsifies the fats, or breaks them into smaller particles, to assist in their digestion. If the bile salts crystallize, you get gallstones.The gallbladder will release bile only under the influence of cholecystokinin. When the chyme (food leaving the stomach after processing) passes through the plyoric sphincter (valve muscle connecting the doudenum to the pylorus (bottom part of stomach), this hormone is released, and the bile is released into the doudenum through a series of ducts that also lead from the pancreas, so the enzymes for further digestion can enter as well.Common Bile Ductsmall intestineAlthough the gallbladder does not make the bile, it is where the bile is stored.The gallbladder stores bile in the body until it is needed in the digestive process. When spicy or fatty foods are eaten, the gallbladder will release the bile into the stomach to help with the digestion.
no its not the gallbladder but the pancreas and in some diabetics this does not happen
The Gallbladder is what produces bile
The gallbladder contracts in response to a hormone called cholecystokinin (CCK), which is released after the ingestion of a fatty meal. This contraction helps to release bile stored in the gallbladder into the digestive tract to aid in the digestion and absorption of fats.
The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes such as amylase, lipase, and protease, as well as sodium bicarbonate to help neutralize stomach acid in the small intestine during digestion.
yes lipase is acidic
