Solution
The correct option is B Intestine
Cholecystokinin and secretin are secreted by the intestine. CCK stimulates pancreas to release enzymes in pancreatic juice and stimulates the gallbladder to release bile. Secretin causes the release of viscous mucus from Brunner’s glands into intestinal juice. It regulates the environment within the duodenum (esp. its pH) via secretions from the stomach and pancreas and helps regulate homeostatic control of water throughout the body.
