These comprise the salivary gland, and the pancreas. The extrinsic glands associated with the digestive system secrete components that aid in the digestion of foodstuffs in the mouth and intestine. The liver is also involved in the further processing of nutrients for the body.
SECREATION OF SALIVARY GLAND:
It is the serous type of gland which secretes alpha-amylase (also known as ptyalin). It enters the oral cavity via the parotid duct.
SECREATION OF PANCREAS:
Enzymes, or digestive juices, are secreted by the pancreas into the small intestine. There, it continues breaking down food that has left the stomach. The pancreas also produces the hormone insulin and secretes it into the bloodstream, where it regulates the body's glucose or sugar level.
