Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ghrelin is a hormone that is produced in the stomach and is responsible for stimulating hunger. With half of Mora's stomach removed, there would be less production of ghrelin, causing her to feel less hungry and potentially leading to weight loss. The other hormones listed (PYY, orexin, and insulin) do not have a direct link to stomach size or hunger levels.
