If the parietal cells in your stomach stop functioning The pH of the abdomen will rise.

Parietal cells, called oxyntic cells, are stomach epithelial cells that release intrinsic factors and hydrochloric acid (HCl). These cells are present in the stomach's gastric glands, which are situated in the fundus and body regions. Gastric acid secretion, which helps with food digestion, mineral absorption, and bacterial control, is controlled by parietal cells.

In the center of the glands in the fundus-body region of the stomach are the parietal cells. They release the intrinsic factor, a protein that binds vitamin B12, and gastric acid, or hydrochloric acid (about 0.16 M, pH 0.8). The parietal cells that are destroyed are unable to create enough stomach acid. As a result, the pH of the stomach rises, food digestion is hampered, and the risk of gastroenteritis increases.

Eva8 [605]

Answer :

Surfactant deficiency due to undeveloped lungs (in premature infants)  suggest respiratory distress in an​ infant, but would be less likely to be observed in an​ adult beacuse in adults , lungs are fully developed and lack of surfactant is less.

Explanation:

Respiratory distress syndrome is a type of neonatal disease of respiration ,caused by deficiency of the surfactant produced by type II alveolar cells in the lungs most commonly in premature infants.

Normally , the lungs of the fetus start the formation of the surfactant during the third trimester (26 weeks through labor and delivery ) but in the premature infants , the lungs are not totally developed , hence lack of surfactant production results in the respiratory distress syndrome charactarized by inflammation of the airways due to the lack of the surface tension lowring effect of the surfactant.
