- A. Lipase
- B. Trypsin
- C. Pepsin
- D. Amylase
Explanation: Pancreatic juice contains Lipase, Trypsin, and Amylase. Thus it does not contain Pepsin and Option C is the correct answer.
Correct answer: Pepsin- A. Protein digestion
- B. HCl secretion
- C. Protein absorption
- D. HCl inhibition
Explanation: Parietal cells are responsible for HCl secretion, which aids in the digestion of food, absorption of minerals, and control of harmful…
Correct answer: HCl secretion- A. Absorption of electrolytes.
- B. Absorption of water
- C. Production of vitamins
- D. Absorption of amino acids
Explanation: Absorption of nutrients occurs in the small intestine. The nutrients are absorbed through the villi of the small intestine.
Correct answer: Absorption of amino acids18164. The following part Is common in both the digestive system and respiratory systems of human beings:
- A. Trachea
- B. Pharynx
- C. Larynx
- D. Oesophagus
Explanation: The pharynx is part of two body systems (the respiratory system and the digestive system) because it carries both air and food.
