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.

Four lobes of the cortex?
The lobes of the brain correlate well with the bones of the skull cap. The frontal lobe is directly below the frontal bone. The parietal lobes (paired) are beneath the parietal bones (paired). At the back of the head is the occipital lobe situated below the occipital bone. And lastly, deep to the ears are the temporal lobes (paired) located underneath the temporal bones (paired).
What are the 3 actions of parietal lobes?
there are many functions here are a few: Visual Perception, Spatial Orientation, Speech
Which of the following are specialized cells blood cells muscle cells bone cells all of the above?
All.
Do people have prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?
The cells found in the human body are eukaryotic cells. Organisms that have eukaryotic cells are usually multicellular like humans. Organisms that have prokaryotic cells are usually unicelluar, like bacteria.
What are two types of cells called?
When a cell reproduces by mitosis, the two identical new cells are called daughter cells.
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
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.
Are parietal cells eukaryote or prokaryote?
Eukaryote
Hydrochloric acid is secreted by which of the secretory cells of the stomach?
Parietal cells
