Solution 1
In human alimentary canal, the digestive juice secreted by the gastric glands are hydrochloric acid, pepsin, mucus.
Explanation:
The gastric glands in the stomach secrete:
- Hydrochloric acid (HCl): Creates an acidic environment that helps in the activation of pepsin and kills harmful microbes.
- Pepsin: A digestive enzyme that breaks down proteins into simpler substances.
- Mucus: Protects the inner lining of the stomach from the corrosive effects of HCl.
Solution 2
In human alimentary canal, the digestive juice secreted by the gastric glands are hydrochloric acid, pepsin, mucus.
Explanation:
Gastric glands secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl), pepsin, and mucus in the digestive tract. HCl produces an acidic environment for enzyme activity, pepsin breaks down proteins into peptides, and mucus shields the stomach lining from acidic conditions and digestive enzymes.
