Parietal cells secrete HCl which activates the pepsinogen to form the pepsin. Pepsin then brings about the digestion of proteins. If the parietal cells of the gut epithelium become partially non-functional then proteins will not be adequately hydrolyzed by pepsin into proteoses and peptones.

Hence, the correct answer is option d.
