ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The hormones gastrin and secretin are made in the linings of the stomach and kidney. The small endocrine gland located in the center of the brain is known as the pineal gland. The development of T-lymphocytes is regulated by hormones known as mineralocorticoids.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lining of the stomach, the gastric mucosa, produces a hormone, called gastrin, in response to the presence of food in the stomach. This hormone stimulates the production of hydrochloric acid and the enzyme pepsin, which are used in the digestion of food.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hormones that control the digestive function are gastrin, secretin, cholecystokinin, and gastric inhibitory peptide. One of the important factors under hormonal control is the stomach acid environment. The hormone gastrin is secreted by G cells in the stomach in response to the presence of proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hormones control the different digestive enzymes that are secreted in the stomach and the intestine during the process of digestion and absorption. For example, the hormone gastrin stimulates stomach acid secretion in response to food intake. The hormone somatostatin stops the release of stomach acid.
