Which of the following is a true statement about how mechanical stretch contributes to meal termination?

Stretch receptors are activated only after macronutrients are completely absorbed, thus they are late signals that lengthen the interval to the next meal but do not stop an ongoing meal.

Gastric stretch receptors send rapid neural signals that contribute to short-term meal termination by informing the hypothalamus that the stomach volume has increased.

Gastric stretch has no role in satiety and only determines the mechanical digestion rate without communicating with the brain.

Stretch signals are primarily endocrine and require hours to affect the hypothalamus, making them irrelevant to immediate meal termination.
