Solution

The movement of hydrochloric acid from the stomach into the duodenum causes the release of secretin into the bloodstream. It regulates water homeostasis throughout the body and influences the environment of the duodenum by regulating secretions in the stomach, pancreas, and liver. Therefore, the acidic environment of the lumen causes the secretion of the hormone secretion.
