Questions Related to liver

The enzyme that is not present in succus entericus is

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Maltase

  2. Nucleases

  3. Nucleosidase

  4. Lipase

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
  • Succus entericus contain enzymes like disaccharidases (maltase, lactase, sucrase, invertase), dipeptidases, lipases, nucleosidases. Nucleases is found in the pancreatic juice.
  • So the correct option is 'B'

Succus entericus is the name given to

  1. A junction between ileum and large intestine

  2. Intestinal juice

  3. Swelling in the gut

  4. Appendix

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
Secretions of the brush border cells of mucosa along with the secretion of goblet cells constitute the intestinal juice which is also known as Succus entericus.

Which of the following juice passes through the ampulla of vater?
A. Succus entericus
B. Pancreatic juice
C. Bile
D. Secretion of Brunner's gland

  1. B and C

  2. A, B and C

  3. B, C and D

  4. A, B, C and D

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Ampulla of Vater is also called as hepato pancreatic duct. It is formed by the union of the pancreatic duct and the common bile duct. Hence pancreatic juice and bile passes through it.
So, the correct answer is 'B and C'.

If mucus is not released as a part of secretion of Brunner gland, the pH of the

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Small intestine will decrease

  2. Stomach will remain same

  3. Larger intestine will decrease

  4. Small intestine will remain same

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Mucus released as a part of secretion of Brunner gland and bicarbonates from pancreas protects the intestinal mucosa from acid as well as provide an alkaline medium. if mucus is not released then the pH of the small intestine will decrease means acid nature in the small intestine will increases.

So the correct answer is 'Small intestine will decrease'.

Succus entericus is secreted by

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. A) secretions of crypts of Lieberkuhm

  2. B) Brunner's gland

  3. C) both of these

  4. D) none of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Succus entericus which is also known as the intestinal juice is secreted by Crypts of Lieberkuhn which moderates the pH of acidic chyme come from the stomach and also contains various digestive enzymes that take part in the final digestion of carbohydrate, fat and protein,

So the correct option is ' secretions of crypts of Lieberkuhm'

Brunner's glands are present in 

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Stomach

  2. Oesophagus

  3. ileum

  4. duodenum

Show answer
Correct Option: A

Brunner's gland is located in

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Duodenum

  2. Jejunum

  3. Ileum

  4. Stomach

Show answer
Correct Option: A

Which cells of 'Crypts of Lieberkuhn' secrete antibacterial lysozyme?

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. paneth cells

  2. Zymogen cells

  3. Kupffer cells

  4. Argentaffin cells

Show answer
Correct Option: A

Crypts of Lieberkuhn is an example for

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Simple tubular gland

  2. Compound alveolar gland

  3. Compound tubular gland

  4. Simple alveolar gland

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The simple tubular gland are single, straight, tubular. Secretory cells line the entire duct, which open on the apical surface. 

Crypts of Lieberkuhn (intestinal glands) simple tubular glands that lie between the finger-like projections of the inner surface of the small intestine.

Which cells of 'Crypts of Lieberkuhn' secrete antibaterial lysozyme?

bio-chemistry digestion digestive glands liver pancreas

  1. Paneth cells

  2. Zymogen cells

  3. Kupffer cells

  4. Argentaffin cells

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Paneth cells are present in the mucosa between the bases of villi of small intestine (Crypts of Lieberkuhn). The function of these cells is to secrete antibacterial lysozyme.
