The correct option is D A-gastric, B-stimulates, C-pepsinogen Gastrin is a peptide hormone which is secreted in stomach by G-cells and is released into the bloodstream. It stimulates the secretion of gastric acid by the parietal cells. It stimulates the parietal cells of the gastric glands to secrete pepsinogen (an inactive form of the enzyme pepsin) and hydrochloric acid.
