Secretin stimulates secretion of bicarbonate from

  1. Liver

  2. Kidneys

  3. Pancreas

  4. Stomach


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
A. Liver is the digestive organ that secretes bile juice.
B. Kidneys are the paired excretory organs.
C. Pancreas is a heterocrine gland that secretes hormones insulin, glucagon and somatostatin and also secretes alkaline pancreatic juice that contains bicarbonate ions.
D. Stomach is the digestive organ that stores the food.
Secretin is secreted from the duodenum and stimulates secretion of pancreatic juice. 
So, the correct answer is 'Pancreas'.

Secretin hormone is secreted by and stimulates 

  1. Duodenum - pancreas

  2. Duodenum - liver

  3. Stomach - gastric glands

  4. Thyroid - thyroid


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Secretin is secreted in duodenum and stimulates the secretion of pancreatic juice but inhibits the secretion of gastric juices. It is released in response to acid in the small intestine, and stimulates the pancreas and bile ducts to release a flood of bicarbonate base, which neutralizes the acid.
So, the correct answer is 'Duodenum - pancreas'.

Select the correct match.

  1. Pineal gland - Does not influence menstrual cycle

  2. Corpus luteum- Secretes oxytocin

  3. Interstitial cells - Erythropoietin

  4. Cholecystokinin - Stimulates pancreatic enzyme secretion

  5. Thyroxine - Triiodothyronine


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
A. Pineal gland is a small, rounded and reddish brown gland present at the dorsal side of forebrain. This gland secretes melatonin and serotonin hormones. Melatonin regulates circadian rhythm of body. 
B. Corpus luteum is formed in ovary after ovulation and degenerates in absence of pregnancy but if pregnancy occurs it persists and secretes progesterone and oestrogen hormones. During pregnancy, corpus luteum also secretes relaxin hormone which dilates the cervix and aids in childbirth.
C. Interstitial cells, also known as Leydig's cells are present in the testis near seminiferous tubules. They secrete testosterone hormone which helps in the development of secondary sexual characteristics in males.
D. Cholecystokinin is secreted from the duodenum and causes contraction of gall bladder and secretion of pancreatic juice into duodenum.
E. Thyroxine (tetra-iodothyronine) is secreted from thyroid gland. It stimulates the consumption of oxygen by metabolically active tissues and also increases the oxidation of glucose in tissues. 
Hence, option D is a correct match.
So, the correct answer is 'Cholecystokinin - Stimulates pancreatic enzyme secretion'.

Gastrin hormone is secreted by 

  1. Pancreas

  2. Intestine

  3. Liver

  4. Stomach


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Gastrin is a peptide hormone which is produced by G cells present in the lining of stomach. It is secreted in the stomach and stimulates gastric secretions. It stimulate the parietal cells of stomach to release HCl or hydrochloric acid which is main constituent of gastric juice. The release of gastrin is stimulated by the presence of peptides in the stomach lumen.
So, the correct answer is 'Stomach'.

Secretion of gastric juice is controlled by 

  1. Enterogasterone

  2. Cholecystokinin

  3. Gastrin

  4. Motilin


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
A. Enterogastrone is secreted from duodenum and inhibits the secretion of gastric juices.
B. Cholecystokinin is secreted from the duodenum and causes contraction of gall bladder and secretion of pancreatic juice into duodenum.
C. Gastrin is secreted in stomach by the parietal cells and stimulates the secretion of gastric juices from the gastric glands.
D. Motilin is secreted from duodenum and regulates gastrointestinal contractions.
So, the correct answer is 'Gastrin'.

Cholecystokinin is a

  1. Bile pigment

  2. Enzyme

  3. Lipid

  4. Gastrointestinal hormone


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Cholecystokinin is a peptide hormone secreted from the cells of duodenum which is an organ of gastrointestinal tract. It was formerly called as pancreozymin. It stimulates the gall bladder to contract and release bile juice (because gall bladder stores bile juice secreted by liver). It also stimulates the secretion of pancreatic juice into duodenum. The secretion of cholecystokinin controlled by the amount of amino acids and fatty acids in duodenum.
So, the correct answer is 'Gastrointestinal hormone'.

Enterogastrone is secreted by

  1. Gastric mucosa

  2. Oesophageal mucosa

  3. Saliva

  4. Duodenal mucosa


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Enterogastrone is a peptide hormone secreted by duodenal mucosa. It is secreted in duodenum when there are sugars and proteins and fatty food in the intestine. Duodenum is a part of small intestine present just after the stomach. Enterogastrone decreases gastric secretions. It also affects movement of chyme in the stomach.
So, the correct answer is 'Duodenal mucosa'.

The pH of succus entericus is

  1. 6.6

  2. 5.6

  3. 2.0

  4. 7.8


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The pH of succus entericus is 7.8.

So the correct option is D.

A child took sugarcane and sucked its juice. Regarding this which of the following match is correct? 
Substrate      Enzyme       Site of secretion of enzyme         Products formed

  1. Protein's- Pepsin, Duodenum,Polypeptides

  2. Starch- Amylase, Salivary glands, Glucose

  3. Lipids- Lipase, Pancreas Fat globules

  4. Sucrose -Invertase, Duodenum, Glucose + fructose


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The correct answer is (d).

Duodenum has characterized glands which secrete two hormones called as

  1. Kinase, estrogen

  2. Secretin, cholecystokinin

  3. Prolactin, parathormone

  4. Estradiol, progestrone


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Cholecystokinin, previously called pancreozymin, is synthesized by I-cells in the mucosal epithelium of the small intestine and secreted in the duodenum. It is responsible for stimulating the digestion of fat and protein. Secretin is a peptide hormone that regulates water homeostasis throughout the body, and influences the environment of the duodenum by regulating secretions in the stomach and pancreas. Secretin is produced in the S cells of the duodenum, which are located in the crypts of Lieberkuhn.
