The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding how pancreatic juice and bile are delivered to the duodenum, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Organs Involved**: - The pancreas produces pancreatic juice, which contains digestive enzymes. - The liver produces bile, which helps in the digestion and absorption of fats. 2. **Pathway of Secretions**: - Pancreatic juice is secreted into the pancreatic duct. - Bile is secreted into the bile duct from the liver. 3. **Common Entry Point**: - Both the pancreatic duct and the bile duct open into the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine. - They converge at a structure known as the ampulla of Vater (or hepatopancreatic ampulla). 4. **Regulation of Secretion**: - The entry of both pancreatic juice and bile into the duodenum is regulated by a muscular valve called the sphincter of Oddi. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since both pancreatic juice and bile are delivered to the duodenum through a common area (the ampulla of Vater), the correct answer to the question is option **a) a common area into the duodenum**. ### Final Answer: **The correct answer is: a) a common area into the duodenum.**
