What will happen if the secretion of parietal cells of
gastric glands is blocked with an inhibitor?
(a) In the absence of HCl secretion, inactive
pepsinogen is not converted into the active
enzyme pepsin.
(b) Enterokinase will not be released from the
duodenal mucosa and so trypsinogen is not
converted to trypsin.
(c) Gastric juice will be deficient in chymosin.
