The small intestine is where most chemical digestion takes place. Most of the digestive enzymes in the small intestine are secreted by the pancreas and enter the small intestine via the pancreatic duct. These enzymes enter the small intestine in response to the hormone cholecystokinin, which is produced in response to the presence of nutrients.
Stomach- Breaks down food with enzymes and hydrochloric acid. Pancreas- secretes insulin that manages blood sugar levels. Liver and Gall bladder- secrete bile that breaks down fats. Small intestine- digests food with enzymes and absorbs nutrients. Large intestine- absorbs water and eliminates waste.
