Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cholic acid is produced by hepatocytes, which are liver cells, and is important for the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. It is not produced by gastric chief cells or salivary glands, and while the pancreas produces enzymes that aid in fat digestion, it does not produce cholic acid specifically.
