Question

The pancreas, an organ present in certain animals, produces enzymes used elsewhere in the animals' digestive systems. which type of cell structure(s) might produce those enzymes? explain your answer.

Answer 1

Exocrine acinar cells secrete several digestive enzymes, inlcuding amylase, lipase, and peptidases enzymes, which are only activated when they reach the duodenum. On the other hand, Epithicial cells, which reside in the pancreatic ducts, are the source of the bicarbonate and water secreted by the pancreas.
