The movement of chyme from the stomach into the duodenum initiates the intestinal phase of secretion.This phase represents a slowdown of the gastric secretory response; however,the presence of digested protein and amino acids in the duodenum continue to stimulate some gastric secretion.The release of secretin and cholecystokinin stimulate pancreatic secretions and inhibit gastric secretions.This selection is the only option that correctly identifies the hormones that are stimulated by the presence of chyme in the duodenum.
