List II

(Secretion)
A. Peptic cells I. Mucus
B. Goblet cells II. Bile juice

C. Oxyntic cells

 III. Proenzyme pepsinogen
D. Hepatic cells  IV. HCL and intrinsic factor for absorption of vitamin B12 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
  • B
    A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
  • C
    A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
  • Correct answer
    D
    A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Solution

Peptic cells
  • Found in the stomach and secrete the proenzyme pepsinogen.
  • This proenzyme is converted to pepsin by the action of HCl.
Goblet cells
  • They are unicellular glands.
  • They secrete mucus.
Oxyntic cells
  • The parietal cells secrete HCl in the stomach and Castle's intrinsic factors.
  • The intrinsic factor is needed for the absorption of vitamin B12.
Hepatic cells
  • Hepatic cells are found in the liver. 
  • They secrete bile which has no digestive enzymes but bile pigments and bile salts. 
  • Bile help in digestion and absorption of fat by emulsifying it.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
