Question

Match List I with List II 

	List I (Cells)		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-I, C-III, D-IV
• B. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
• C. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
• D. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve the problem, we need to match the cells listed in List I with their respective secretions in List II. Here is the breakdown of each cell type and their associated secretions:

• Peptic cells: Also known as chief cells in the stomach, are responsible for secreting proenzyme pepsinogen, which is later activated to pepsin that aids in protein digestion.
• Goblet cells: Found in the mucous membranes, primarily secrete mucus, which lubricates and protects the lining of the digestive and respiratory tracts.
• Oxyntic cells: Also known as parietal cells, secrete HCl (hydrochloric acid) and intrinsic factor necessary for vitamin B12 absorption in the stomach.
• Hepatic cells: Located in the liver, produce bile juice, which aids in the digestion and absorption of fats.

Based on the above understanding, the correct matching is:

• A-III (Peptic cells - Proenzyme pepsinogen)
• B-I (Goblet cells - Mucus)
• C-IV (Oxyntic cells - HCl and intrinsic factor)
• D-II (Hepatic cells - Bile juice)

Therefore, the correct answer is:

A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
