ANS: B
When the sphincter of Oddi relaxes, bile flows into the duodenum. The pyloric sphincter controls flow of fluid from the stomach to the duodenum. Secretions from the pancreas empty into the common bile duct at the ampulla of Vater. The ileocecal valve prevents reflux of digested mate-rial from the colon into the small intestine.
