The presence of stones in the gallbladder is referred to as:
1. cholecystitis
2. cholecystectomy
3. cholelithiasis
4. cholesterol calculi

After digestion, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form:
1. chylomicrons
2. micelles
3. globules
4. lipoproteins

Maximum enzyme activity will be seen in:
1. duodenum
2. stomach
3. oral cavity
4. ileum

The shortest part of the human intestine is the:
1. transverse colon
2. duodenum
3. descending colon

What is incorrect regarding saliva in humans?

1. The concentration of electrolytes, potassium and bicarbonate, are higher than in plasma
2. It contains antibacterial compounds like thiocynate lysozyme
3. Lingual lipase has a pH optimum of around 6.8 and is functional in oral cavity

What are broken down in the liver or muscle cells to release fatty acids and glycerol?

Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
1. caries--tooth decay
2. gingivitis--inflammation of the gums
3. heartburn--stomach acid in the esophagus

A peptide hormone that stimulates secretion of gastric acid (HCl) by the parietal cells of the stomach and aids in gastric motility is:
1. GIP
2. gastrin
3. secretin
4. CCK

The hormones released from cells in the duodenal epithelium in response to acidic and fatty stimuli present there when the pylorus opens and emits gastric chyme into the duodenum for further digestion, are:
1. secretin and CCK
2. GIP alone
3. secretin alone
4. CCK alone
