What will happen if the secretion of parietal cells of gastric glands is blocked with an
inhibitor?
1. Gastric juice will be deficient in chymosin
2. Gastric juice will be deficient in pepsinogen
3. In the absence of HCl secretion, inactive pepsinogen is not converted into the active
enzyme pepsin
4. Enterokinase will not be released from the duodenal mucosa and so trypsinogcn is not
converted to trypsin

2. Small intestine :Starch→α-amylase→Disaccharide (maltose)
3. Small intestine :Proteins→Pepsin→Amino Acids
4. Stomach :Fats→ Lipase→Micelles
