What will happen if the secretion of parietal cells of gastric glands is blocked with an inhibitor?A. Gastric juice will be deficient in chymosinB. Gatric juice will be deficient in pepsinogenC. In the absence of HCl secretion, inactive pepsinogen is not converted into the active enzyme pepsinD. Enterokinase will not be released from the duodental mucosa and so trypsinogen is not converted to trypsin. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C The parietal cells (oxyntic cells) are large and most numerous on the side walls of gastric glands. These secrete hydrochloric acid and castle intrinsic factor. The peptic cells (zymogen) of gastric glands secrete gastric digestive enzymes as proenzymes-pepsinogen and prorennin and small amount of gastric amylase and gastric lipase. The hydrochloric acid and maintains a strongly lipase. The hydrochloric acid maintains a strongly lipase. The hydrochloric acid maintains a strongle lipase. The hydrochloric acid maintains a strongly acidic pH of about `1.5-2.5` in the stomach. HCl converts pepsinogen and propennin to pepsin and rennin respectively. |

Which one of the following is the correct matching of the site of action on the given substrate ,the enzyme acting upon it and the end product?A. Duodenum: Triglycerides trypsin monoglyceridesB. Small intestine: Starch `alpha`-amylase disaccharide (maltose)C. Small intestine, Proteins pepsin amino acidsD. Stomach: Fats, Lipase micelles |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B In small intestine food meats with the pancreatic juice containing `alpha`-amylase, which converts starch into maltose, isomaltose and `alpha`-distrins in small intestine. Starch `overset("Pancreatic"alpha"-amylase)to` Maltose (disaccharide) The pancreatic juice also contains proenzymes trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen and pracarboxypeptidase. The trypsinogen is converted to active trypsin in intestine by enterokinase of intnestinal juice. The trypsin converts proteins into large particles and the large peptides are converted to dipeptide and amino acids by carboxypeptidase. |
