Solution

failed
failed

The answer is the fourth one: parietal, chief, and mucous cells.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Sensory, Motor, and Interneuron Cells: These are types of nerve cells involved in the nervous system, not in gastric secretion.
  2. Basal, Transitional, and Squamous Cells: These are types of epithelial cells found in various tissues, but they are not specifically involved in gastric secretion.
  3. White Blood Cells, Red Blood Cells, and Platelets: These are components of blood and are not involved in the secretion of gastric juices.
  4. Parietal, Chief, and Mucous Cells: These are the correct types of cells involved in gastric secretion. Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor, chief cells secrete pepsinogen, and mucous cells secrete mucus to protect the stomach lining.
  5. Adipose, Epithelial, and Nerve Cells: These are general types of cells found in the body but are not specifically involved in gastric secretion.

Summary: The three types of cells involved in gastric secretion are parietal, chief, and mucous cells.
