If the stomach did not produce any hydrochloric acid, which enzyme will not function? (1) Ptyalin (2) Rennin (3) Pepsin (4) Lipase

1 Answer

Answer :

(3) Pepsin Explanation: Hydrochloric acid converts pepsinogen into an enzyme called pepsin. When food enters the stomach, hydrochloric acid production increases and the pH may fall to as low as 1 or 2, a very acidic condition.

Description : Which acid is present in the stomach of humans? (1) sulphuric acid (2) hydrochloric acid (3) nitric acid (4) citric acid

Last Answer : (2) hydrochloric acid Explanation: Hydrochloric acid is naturally produced by cells in our bodies to help digest food in the stomach.

Description : Hydrochloric acid is secreted by the cells lining the – (1) Oral cavity (2) Stomach (3) Ileum (4) Colon

Last Answer : (2) Stomach Explanation: The chief cells of the stomach secrete enzymes for protein breakdown (inactive pepsinogen and rennin). Hydrochloric acid activates pepsinogen into the enzyme pepsin, which then helps digestion by breaking the bonds linking amino acids, a process known as proteolysis.
