Answer to Question 1

Answer: The stomach is not the source of hunger pangs, in that hunger remains in persons who
have lost their stomachs to cancer. The stomach, however, does play a role in satiety in that nutrient sensors are located within the stomach and that removal of a meal from the stomach during a period of satiety will result in the animal consuming sufficient food to replace the withdrawn food. The stomach releases ghrelin, which induces eating.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: fluoxetine
