Which hormone stops acid secretion in the stomach?

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

CCK

Explanation:

Cholecystokinin (CCK) acts by generating gallbladder contractions and relaxing the Oddi sphincter together with the action of secretin (another hormone secreted by the gut) that stimulates bile production and decreases acid secretion in the stomach.

When stomach acid is high, it stimulates the secretion of another hormone, secretin, which causes decreased gastrointestinal motility. This has the effect of stopping the transfer of stomach contents to the duodenum, preventing the stomach from emptying too quickly. Secretin in conjunction with CCK will also act on the stomach glands, inhibiting acid secretion.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have been ______.
yawa3891 [41]
Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms.
(At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic cells containing mitochondria then engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved to become specialized chloroplast organelles).
