Answer:

Pancreas, stomach, gall bladder, among other things (if any).

Explanation:

The pancreas releases enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin to digest proteins into the duodenum. (This process is overly simplified for your convenience). The stomach itself manufactures hydrochloric acid (HCl) via parietal cells which help in chemical denaturation. The gall bladder houses bile, manufactured by the liver, which is released into the duodenum when fatty food is detected. The bile serves to emulsify the fat, to aide in digestion.

Again, all these processes are simplified, but if you are in an advanced class you should look up the mechanisms of release and other processes that may be needed. Good luck!

Since not only do Americans now have more access to healthcare facilities, but the population is projected to expand by 9% in the next ten years, only for healthcare services. As a result, more healthcare providers and staff will be needed. Health care jobs are rising at a rate of just over 17,000 per month, making it much easier to find work. The work also requires you to meet new people and connect with your customers; this includes learning new skills and learning about the clients' culture on a daily basis.
