1. Correct
2. Incorrect

Correct answer: Partially Correct

Solution

The statement is partially true because enterogastrone does inhibit stomach activity, and gastrin stimulates HCl secretion, but the secretion from the duodenum that inhibits gastrointestinal movement is secretin, not enterogastrone.
