Solution

The correct option is D Secretion of gastrin hormone
Liver is involved in the production of bile. Bile helps in the emulsification of fats (conversion of large fat droplets into smaller ones). Liver also plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism by maintaining glucose concentration in normal range.

Gastrin is secreted by G-cells in pyloric region of stomach. It stimulates gastric glands to secrete and release gastric juices.
