Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The release of CCK in response to the presence of fat in the duodenum is a well-known physiological response.

Answer: B
 Acid in the duodenum can trigger the release of hormones such as secretin, but not necessarily CCK.

Answer: C
 Acid in the stomach would not trigger the release of CCK, as it is a hormone that is primarily involved in the regulation of digestive enzymes and bile release from the pancreas and gallbladder in response to the presence of fat and protein in the small intestine.

Answer: D
 Protein in the stomach would not trigger the release of CCK, as it is a hormone that is primarily involved in the regulation of digestive enzymes and bile release from the pancreas and gallbladder in response to the presence of fat and protein in the small intestine.
