Do parietal cells have a cell membrane?
Yes, parietal cells (like all cells) have a cell membrane. Parietal cells have a huge surface area (their membrane has deep folds called canaliculi).
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.
What other cells work with the parietal cell?
Mast cells and EC (enterochromaffin) cells produce histamine, which stimulates the parietal cell to produce hydrochloric acid.
What would you expect for an individual if the parietal cells were not functioning?
Not to be able to initiate protein digestion in the stomach
What cells are found in the gastric glands?
I would say chief cells since they secrete pesinogen whereas parietal cells secrete HCl which tecnically aids in chemical digestion but has other functions as welll. Obviously, HCl alone is not enough to perform chemical digestion which is why more complex molecules such as pesinogen which is converted to pepsin is produced.
What cells produce hydrocholoric acid in stomach?
Parietal cells
What do parietal cells and chief cells produce together?
Parietal cells produce cover cells and chief cells produce micro and megaspores
Do parietal cells have a cell membrane?
Yes, parietal cells (like all cells) have a cell membrane. Parietal cells have a huge surface area (their membrane has deep folds called canaliculi).
Part of the digestive system are parietal cells located?
Parietal cells are found in the fundic zone of the stomach.
What organelles does the parietal cell have?
Parietal cells have an endoplasmic reticulum organelles, tubular agranular reticulum, nucleus and vesicles. Parietal cells of the stomach secretes acid.
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.
Where is a parietal cell found?
Parietal cells are found in the fundic zone of the stomach.
What happens when parietal cells shrink?
When these parietal cells shrink in size (atrophy), they produce less and less intrinsic factor
Why are parietal cells acidophilic?
Parietal cells are acidophilic because they contain a large number of mitochondria. The mitochondria, which are needed to pump hydrogen ions against their concentration gradient, are acidophilic; therefore, parietal cells are acidophilic as well.
Which kind of cell produces hydrochloric acid in the stomach?
Osteoclast (most likely from my point of view)
What other cells work with the parietal cell?
Mast cells and EC (enterochromaffin) cells produce histamine, which stimulates the parietal cell to produce hydrochloric acid.
What would you expect for an individual if the parietal cells were not functioning?
Not to be able to initiate protein digestion in the stomach
