Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Secretin is released by the small intestine in response to the presence of acidic chyme. Secretin slows down the delivery of chyme to allow for the release of bicarbonate from the pancreas to neutralize the acid. Cholecystokinin (B) is released by the small intestine in response to the presence of fat and protein. It stimulates the release of bile from the gallbladder and pancreatic enzymes from the pancreas, but does not affect the delivery of chyme. Gastrin (C) is released by the stomach in response to the presence of food, but does not affect the delivery of chyme to the small intestine. Bicarbonate (D) is released by the pancreas in response to secretin to neutralize the acidic chyme, but it does not affect the delivery of chyme. Additional pancreatic enzymes (E) may be released in response to cholecystokinin, but do not affect the delivery of chyme.
