D Correct answer
Explanation

The liver produces bile, which contains bile salts, cholesterol, and bilirubin, but NO digestive enzymes. Bile mechanically emulsifies fats to increase surface area for lipase action. The actual digestive enzymes that break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats come from the pancreas and small intestine.
