Q.152. The secretion of pancreatic enzymes and bicarbonate ions into pancreatic juice is stimulated by
(1) Gastrin and insulin
(2) Angiotensin and epinephrine
(3) Cholecystokinin and secretin
(4) Insulin and glucagon

Dear student

Please refer the solution below for the said query


The correct option is (3).

The gastro intestinal hormones Secretin and Cholecystikinin (CCK) secreted by the cells in the duodenum stimule release of bile juice and enzymes from pancreas. 

CCK is released in response to fat rich chyme and causes the contraction of gall bladder to release bile which in turn carries out the process of emulsification. 

Secretin is released when the chyme entering the intestine is highly acidic. Secretin stimulates pancreas to release  bicarbonates rich fluid so that proper ph is maintained for the functioning of other enzymes. 




Hope this information clears your doubt about the topic.
