Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The secretions of the gallbladder (bile), liver (bile), and pancreas (pancreatic juice) enter the duodenum by way of the sphincter of Oddi. This is the point where the common bile duct and pancreatic duct merge together before entering the duodenum. The sphincter of Oddi controls the release of these secretions into the small intestine. The jejunum and ileum are parts of the small intestine, but the ileum does not receive secretions from these organs. The stomach also does not receive secretions from the gallbladder, liver, or pancreas.
