Need help and explaination for the answer with this 5 MCQs questions regarding human physiology about Digestion.

Question 1:

A certain type of sandwich has caused severe indigestion in those who eat it. The sandwich seemingly remains in the consumer’s stomach for over 7 hours before completely moving into the small intestine. Which of the following organs/systems/processes could the sandwich potentially be affecting? Select ALL that could potentially cause this problem.

a) The sympathetic nervous system

b)The parasympathetic nervous system

c)The enteric nervous system

D)The central nervous system

e)The gastroesophageal sphincter

f)The pyloric sphincter

g)Water reabsorption by the small intestine

Water reabsorption by the large intestine

i)Absorption of chyme through the stomach lining

j)Acid production in the gastric gland

Explanation / Answer

Regular functions of different organs/systems/processes and the problems that occur due to delayed stomach emptying are as follows:

a) The sympathetic nervous system- inhibits peristalsis and secretion.

b) The parasympathetic nervous system- stimulates peristalsis and secretion.

c) The enteric nervous system- considered as mind of gut, which can upset the brain and can get upset by the brain.

e) The gastroesophageal sphincter- through this sphincter the acid backs up into the esophagus.

f) The pyloric sphincter- is the opening through which semi-digested food in stomach is secreted into duodenum. The blockage of pyloric sphincter also causes delaying of stomach.

j) Acid production in the gastric gland gets increased
