What else can I help you with?
What organ secretes sodium bicarbonate into the duodenum to neutralize chyme?
pancreas!
What salivary gland secretes amylase and bicarbonate ions?
The parotid gland secretes amylase, an enzyme that breaks down starch into simpler sugars, while the submandibular gland secretes bicarbonate ions to help neutralize acidic food and protect the teeth from erosion.
Which organ secretes digestive enzymes and sodium bicarbonate?
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.
What base would you add to chyme?
The pancreas secretes bicarbonate (HCO3-) to the chyme in the duodenum to neutralize it.
What is the pancreases function in digestion?
it secretes digestive enzymes that are important to the digestion of carbohydrates, fats(lipids), anf proteins. it also secretes a alkaline based juiced that is filled with a bicarbonate.
The gland that secretes an alkaline substance?
The pancreas secretes an alkaline substance called bicarbonate to neutralize stomach acid as food enters the small intestine.
Body organ which produced sodium bicarbonate?
The pancreas secretes sodium bicarbonate if it's healthy and working correctly
Pancreas?
amylase and lipase....majority is exocrine with tiny endocrine pockets....also secretes an alkaline solution of bicarbonate into duodenum....
What gland of the endocrine system secretes bicarbonate which neutralizes stomach acid into the small intestine?
The duodenum has special glands, Brunner's glands, that secrete an alkaline fluid to counteract the acidity of the chyme from the stomach which uses hydrochloric acid as part of its digestion of proteins.
What is the role of bicarbonate ions in the pancreas?
The pancreas secretes bicarbonate in order to neutralize the highly acidic chyme (dissolved/digested food) coming from the stomach.
What secretes a buffer that neutralizes the acidity of stomach acid?
The pancreas secretes bicarbonate ions into the small intestine to neutralize the acidity of stomach acid. This action helps maintain the pH balance in the digestive system and protects the lining of the intestines from damage.
What organ secretes buffers needed to neutralize the acidity of chyme and also secretes digestive enzymes?
Cells that line the stomach produce gastric acids. The other cells found in the stomach are also the ones that produce a fluid called a bicarbonate, which is a base, to neutralize stomach acid.
