A Correct answer
Explanation

Gastric specifically refers to the stomach. Therefore, a gastric ulcer is a sore that develops in the stomach lining. Peptic ulcers is the broader category that includes both gastric ulcers (stomach) and duodenal ulcers (upper part of small intestine). The term helps distinguish the location of the ulcerative damage.
