Description : Besides being fundamental for the activation of the main gastric digestive enzyme how does HCl also directly participate in digestion?

Last Answer : With its corrosive effect, HCl also helps the rupture of the adhesion between food particles, facilitating the digestive process.

Description : What is the function of digestive enzymes ? -Biology

Last Answer : The food we eat is complex in nature, i.e., it contains complex molecules. Digestive enzymes break down these complex molecules into smaller simpler molecules so that they can be absorbed by the walls of the intestine.

Description : Where is it produced and what is the function of enterogastrone in the digestive process?

Last Answer : When the chyme is too fatty there is a secretion of enterogastrone by the duodenum. This hormone reduces the peristalsis of the stomach thus slowing the entrance of food into the duodenum (as the digestion of fats takes more time).

Description : How is it produced and what is the function of cholecystokin in the digestive process?

Last Answer : The fat level of the chyme detected in the duodenum stimulates the secretion of cholecystokin (CCK). CCK acts by stimulating the secretion of the pancreatic juice also, and the releasing of bile by the gallbladder.

Description : Where is it produced and what is the function of secretin in the digestive process?

Last Answer : Secretin is made in the duodenum. The chyme acidity causes the duodenum to release this hormone that in its turn stimulates the secretion of the pancreatic juice.

Description : How is it produced and what is the function of gastrin in the digestive process?

Last Answer : The presence of food in the stomach stimulates the secretion of gastrin that in its turn triggers the releasing of the gastric juice.

Description : Which of the following is the function of enterogastrone? (a) It inhibits the secretion of gastric juice. (b) It stimulates the secretion of digestive juices in the stomach. (c) It stimulates the flow of pancreatic juice. (d) It regulates the flow of bile.

Last Answer : (a) It inhibits the secretion of gastric juice.
