  1. 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 HCI secretion, inactive pepsinogen is not converted into the active enzyme pepsin
    4. Enterokinase will not be released from the duodenal mucosa and so trypsinogen is not converted to trypsin
Correct Option: C

If the secretion of parietal cells of gastric glands is blocked with an inhibitor, in the absence of HCI secretion, inactive pepsinogen is not converted into the active enzyme pepsin.
