  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Brush border of small intestine cells is formed of ____________.
    Solution
    1. The innermost layer lining the lumen of the alimentary canal is the mucosa. This layer forms irregular folds (rugae) in the stomach and small finger-like foldings called villi in the small intestine.
    2.  The cells lining the villi produce numerous microscopic projections called microvilli giving a brush border appearance found on the apical surface of some epithelial cells. These modifications increase the surface area enormously and help in secretion and absorption. 
    3. Microvilli are covered in the plasma membrane, which encloses cytoplasm and microfilaments. Though these are cellular extensions, there are little or no cellular organelles present in the microvilli. Hence, the brush border of small intestine cells is formed of microvilli.
    So, the correct answer is 'microvilli'.
  • Question 2

The best example is the digestive enzymes which are secreted in form of zymogens (Pepsinogen, Trypsinogen etc.,) which remain inactive in the cells in which they are produced. They are activated by proteolytic cleavage. The inactive form of the enzymes called the zymogens or proenzymes or enzyme precursors. So, the correct answer is option D.

    Solution
    The submucosal plexus, also known as Meissner's plexus, is situated in the submucosal region between the oblique muscle and sub-mucosa. Hence, Option A is correct.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Hence, Option 'D' is correct.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Duodenum produces hormones
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Intrinsic factor is required for
    Solution
    The intrinsic factor (IF) is a glycoprotein produced by the parietal cells (oxyntic cells) located at the gastric body and fundus. It plays a crucial role in the transportation and absorption of the vital micronutrient vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) by the ileum.
    So, the correct answer is 'Absorption of 
    B12
