The Liver Lobule Secretes

Question

The liver lobule secretes
A) bile.
B) cholecystokinin.
C) lipase.
D) chyle.

Accepted Answer

The liver lobule secretes bile, which helps in the digestion and absorption of fats. Bile is then stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine when needed. Cholecystokinin is a hormone secreted by the small intestine that stimulates the release of bile from the gallbladder, but it is not secreted by the liver lobule. Lipase is an enzyme that helps break down fats and is secreted by the pancreas, not the liver lobule. Chyle is a milky fluid that is formed in the small intestine during digestion and contains fats, proteins, and lymph, but it is not secreted by the liver lobule.
