Which of the following are the three parts of the stomach?

Fundus, body, pylorus
Duodenum, jejunum, ileum
Cardia, fundus, antrum
Pylorus, cecum, colon

The correct answer is: Fundus, body, pylorus

The three parts of the stomach are correctly identified as the fundus, body, and pylorus. The fundus is the uppermost portion of the stomach and is often where gas accumulates. The body is the central part of the stomach and serves as the primary area for the storage and mixing of food with gastric juices. The pylorus is the lower section of the stomach that connects to the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine) and is responsible for regulating the passage of partially digested food, known as chyme, into the intestine. Understanding the structure of the stomach is important in the context of digestion and gastrointestinal health, as each part plays a specific role in processing food. Other options listed involve parts of the digestive system, but they either pertain to different organs or divisions of the intestines rather than the stomach itself, thereby not fitting the question regarding the stomach's anatomy.
