Correct Answer:

Liver


Solution : The correct option is Liver.

The liver is the only organ that does not release any digestive enzymes. While the liver is important in digestion because it produces bile , which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help in fat breakdown, it does not directly discharge digestive enzymes into the digestive system. Instead, it creates bile salts, which aid in the emulsification of fats to promote digestion by pancreatic enzymes secreted into the small intestine. The salivary glands, small intestine, and pancreas, among others, release digestive enzymes to help in the digestion of food.
