capacity
45. Impairs taste sensation when copious
Gastric Juice

stomach
47. Pyloric gland is made up of 3 different cells
48. intrinsic factor is produced by oxynthic cells.
49. Mucus content is produced by the pyloric
gland only
50. Chef cells produces pepsinogen
Gastric secretion functions include
31, Deactivation of the enzyme pepsin
52. Destruction of bacteria and other pathogens
53. Enhancing Vit B production
54, Protection of the gastric mucosa
55 Aiding nori-al absorption of non-haem iron
The following will inhibit gastric acid secretion (G.A.S)
56. Histamine

59. Serotonin
60. Cabachol
The following will inhibit @.A.S
61. Vitamin 8-12
62 Atropine
63. VIP
64. Acetylcholine
65. Caffeine
As regards phases of G.A.S the following matches are
correct,
66. Cephalic — sight of food
67. Cephalic ~ presence of food in the mouth
68. Intestinal — presence of chyme in the stomach
69. Local— end-product protein in the antrum
70. Gastric ~ stimulated by alcohol
Control of gastric acid secretion (G.A.S}
72. Vagus nerve increases G.A.S
72. Myoenteric plexus inhibit vagus nerve: activitie:
73. Somatostatin decreases the secretion of both
Bastric and parietal cells.
74. Vasoactive intestinal peptide enhances G.A.S
75. GIP counteracts secretatgogues activities
As regards pancreatic secretion
76. Pancreatic julce is Isotonic with blood
77. Acioi region of the gland produces electrolytes
78. The ductile area produces enzymes
79. Interdigestive secretion rate is 0.5-0.?ml/min
80. It has an average pH of 6-7
Pancreatic enzymes include
81. Enteropeptidases
82. Ribonucleases
83. Procarboxypeptidases
84. Trypsinogen
85. Sucrases
Control of pancreatic secretion include
86, Sympathetic stimulation increases secretion
7. Secretin causes echolic secretion
88. Cholecystokinin causes hydrolactic secretion
89. Parasympathetic stimulation reduces secretion
90. Secretin increases secretion of juice rich in
water content

| __ Digestion of fatty food
121.
122,
Commences slightly in the mouth
