Question

Hormone which control the secretion of intestinal juice is

• A. Enterogastrone
• B. Enterocrinin
• C. Duocrinin
• D. Both B and C

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Enterogastrone

When food enters the stomach then digestion of stomach occurs resulting in the production of gastrin hormone by pyloric stomach and duodenum. Gastrin stimulates gastric gland to secrete and release gastric juice. It also stimulates gastric mobility. When chyme enters into the duodenum then enterogastrone hormone is released by duodenum that inhibits the gastric secretion and mobility of stomach.

Duocrinin is secreted by duodenum to stimulates the Brunner's gland to release mucus and enzyme into the intestinal juice.

Enterocrinin secreted by small intestine to stimulates the crypts of Liberkuhn to release enzyme into the intestinal juice.
