    The document discusses digestion and the roles of different organs and systems. It explains that the pancreas releases enzymes via pancreatic juice into the duodenum to help digest nutrients from carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and fats. The liver stores excess carbohydrates as glycogen and helps manufacture proteins while abnormal fat in the liver is a sign of disease. The endocrine system regulates various bodily functions through hormones while the nervous system can trigger hormone release from organs to create downstream effects.
