4 Structures along the Digestive Tract that produce enzymes

Salivary Glands produce an enzyme in saliva called Amylase also called ptyalin.

Stomach.. enzyme is Pepsin

Liver .. Bile

Pancreas .. enzyme Lipase



Bile function is a yellow-green secretion of the liver and it's stored in the gallbladder. It's released during digestion when fats enter the first part of the small intestines. Bile emulsifies fats preparing them for further digestion and absorption in the small intestines.


As for malfunctions.. I'm not sure what you mean by that...

but my best guesses would be

1) Malabsorptions
2) Hiatal hernia
3) Heartburn
