Given your results from the baby's spit up/vomit, you run an X-ray while the baby is eating. This allows you to determine whether there is a blockage in the organ that generates that enzyme (physical), or if there is a problem with the enzymes themselves (chemical). Which of the following results would help you decide whether the problem is solely physical or chemical?
a. Chemical: The enzyme was spit up, but the digestive path appears normal
b. Physical: The enzyme was spit up, but the digestive path appears normal
c. Chemical: The enzyme was spit up, but the digestive path has a lump stopping movement of food
d. Physical: The enzyme was not spit up, but the digestive path has a lump stopping movement of food
e. Chemical: The enzyme was not spit up, and the digestive path appears normal
Answer:
