The answer is : chief cell,they produce and secrete pepsinogen

It produce hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen?
Gastric Glands
What cells secrete hydrochloric acid?
Chief cells lining the stomach. (They actually secrete H+ and Cl- ions individually, but it becomes HCl in the solution).
Will HCl produce an acidic solution when dissolved in water?
Yes, HCl is a strong acid.
What will HCl plus NaClO3 produce?
NaClO3 + 6 HCl = 3 Cl2 + 3 H2O + NaCl
What would happen if specialized cells in your stomach could no longer produce HCl?
The main functions of HCl is killing microorganisms and bacteria. it also aids in digestion as it helps breaking down ingested food into small soluble particles which are then taken up by the blood stream. Reverse will happen if the stomach stops producing HCl.
What is needed to convert pepsinogen to pepsin?
hydrochloric acid produced by parietal cells converts pepsin to pepsinogen
Gastrin secretes what?
pepsinogen (a precursor of pepsin) which helps humans digest, when activated by HCL.
What is the function of intestinal crypts?
An intestinal crypt is a home to Paneth cells that secrete AMPs and control segregation.
Why don't protease digest stomach and small intestine?
The protease released in the stomach is pepsin. When it is released it's in an inactive form called pepsinogen. Hydrochloric acid (HCL) is also released. HCL actives the pepsinogen to pepsin so it can break down protein. Both HCL and pepsinogen are released from different cells in the glands so they don't combine until they are released into the stomach, this prevents them from eating away the stomach wall. ALSO the stomach secretes a coating of mucus from epithelial cells which helps protect the stomach lining from being digested by pepsin and HCL.
An example of a gastric secretion is?
HCl (gastric acid), pepsinogen.
What organ has chief and parietal cells?
Chief and parietal cells are found in the fundic zone of the stomach.Chief cells produce pepsinogen, and parietal cells produce hydrochloric acid. Both of these products assist in the chemical breakdown of stomach contents.
Does glandular tissues produce enzymes?
They produce digestive juices, a combination of chemicals and enzymes including; HCL, intrinsic factor, and pepsinogen.
What do chief cells in the stomach produce?
theses cells produce gastric enzymes such as pepsinogen and lipase. this helps digest triglercerides into free fatty acids and di, mono-glycerides. hope this was helpful:)
What substances are acitively absorbed in the stomach?
Aspirin and alcohol are two substances that are actively absorbed in the stomach.
It produce hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen?
Gastric Glands
Would pepsin work in your mouth?
No. Pepsin is the active form of a protein manufactured in the stomach called pepsinogen. In order to become active, it has to come into contact with HCl (hydrochloric acid). HCl isn't present in your mouth (I hope!), so pepsinogen, even if it WERE in your mouth, could never become active there.No, the pepsin enzyme is located in the stomach, the enzymes amylase and lipase are found in saliva in the mouth
What type of cells in the epithelial layer of stomach secrete pepsinogen?
Zymogenic, or chief, cells.
