What else can I help you with?
What is the hormone that regulates the synthesis of HCl in the stomach called?
gastrin
Does the stomach secrete gastrin when its internal pH rises?
Yes, Gastrin is a hormone that the stomach secretes to help balance the pH when it rises. see chacha.com
What is the normal PH of stomach juice and what regulates it?
The normal pH of stomach juice typically ranges from 1.5 to 3.5, making it highly acidic. This acidity is primarily regulated by the secretion of gastric acid (hydrochloric acid) from the parietal cells in the stomach lining, which is stimulated by factors such as the presence of food, the hormone gastrin, and the nervous system. The pH is essential for activating digestive enzymes and facilitating the breakdown of food. Additionally, the stomach has mechanisms to protect itself from excessive acidity, such as mucus production and bicarbonate secretion.
Is glucose a hormone that regulates the body's production of insulin?
No, but insulin is a hormone that regulates the body's production of glucose.
What usually regulates hormone concentrations in the blood?
Negative feedback usually regulates hormone concentrations in the blood.
The hormone called secretin functions to?
Secretin is a hormone produced by the S cells of the duodenum in response to acidic chyme entering the small intestine from the stomach. Its primary function is to stimulate the pancreas to release bicarbonate-rich fluid, which helps neutralize stomach acid, creating an optimal pH for digestive enzymes in the intestine. Additionally, secretin promotes bile production in the liver and regulates gastric acid secretion, contributing to overall digestive processes.
The hormone that causes the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach?
That is hormone gastrin. It is secreted by stomach
Which stomach enzyme is low in optimum pH?
Because the chemical that works in the stomach- pepsin (a chemical that breaks down proteins) only works in acidic conditions, which is low pH. Hope that helps
True or false Chyme regulates the synthesis of HCl permitting it to be made only when the pH in the stomach is higher than about one and a half?
false it's Gastrin
Does the liver secrete a hormone that regulates metabolism?
No. Your liver does not secretes any such hormone. Your thyroid does.
What gland regulates growth and metabolism?
The pituitary gland regulates growth and metabolism by secreting hormones such as growth hormone and thyroid stimulating hormone.
What regulates the exit of the partially digested food from the stomach?
The stomach!
