Predict the effect of the removal of the gallbladder on the digestion of fats. In what way is the anatomy of the duodenal mucosa structurally adapted for the secretion of enzymes and the absorption of nutrients? Explain why acid reflux into the esophagus damages the esophageal wall and causes pain, whereas gastric juice does not typically irritate the stomach lining.
