Answer Key / Explanation : (d) -

(d)

Secretin and cholecystokinin are the two main gastrointestinal hormones secreted in the duodenum of alimentary canal. Cholecystokinin stimulates gall bladder contraction and hence flow of bile salts is increased into the intestine, while secretin stimulates the release of an alkaline pancreatic fluid, which in turn, neutralises stomach acid
