Answer: The salivary glands, pancreas and stomach have common feature for secreting enzymes for the breakdown of food.

Step-by-step explanation: The salivary glands secrete enzyme that helps in the digestion of the food that we eat.

The salivary gland secrete enzymes such as amylase, lingual lipase that helps in breakdown of the food.

The gastric glands present in the stomach secrete enzymes such as gastric pepsin and lipase for the digestion of the food. The pancreas also secrete digestive juices for the breakdown of food.
