Trypsin is an enzyme present in pancreatic juice that helps in the digestion of proteins present in our food. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds, breaking down proteins into smaller peptides. The peptide products are then further converted into amino acids via other proteases, rendering them available for absorption into the bloodstream. Was this answer helpful?

a. Bile- It is produced by liver helps in breaking down lipids to fatty acids (in small intestine) by a process called emulsification. b. Lipase- It breaks down dietary fats to fatty acids and glycerol. It is secreted by pancreas in the duodenal region of the small intestine. c. Salivary amylase- It is secreted by the salivary gland and it acts on starch present in the food and breaks it down ...

In the duodenum, trypsin catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds, breaking down proteins into smaller peptides which occurs in the small intestine where a slightly alkaline environment (about pH 8). Hence, Trypsin a digestive enzyme secreted by the …

The correct option is B 1 -c, 2 -b, 3 -a Salivary amylase is the enzyme produced by salivary glands that initiate digestion of starch in the mouth. Further pancreatic amylase digests starch in the small intestine. Trypsinogen is the proenzyme produced in the pancreas. Trypsinogen is converted to trypsin in the small intestine that digests protein.

Pancreatic juice contains a variety of inactive enzymes such as trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, and carboxypeptidases. These enzymes play an important role in the digestion of proteins.

Chose the function of pancreatic juice from the following. A. Trypsin digest proteins and lipase carbohydrates B. Trypsin digest emulsified fat and lipase proteins C. Trypsin and lipase digest fats D. Trypsin digest proteins and lipase emulsified fats

The correct option is D Protein, in alkaline medium in duodenum Both pepsin and trypsin are proteolytic enzymes. Pepsin is secreted in the stomach, whereas trypsin is a component of pancreatic juice. Pepsinogen is activated to pepsin in the stomach on exposure to hydrochloric acid. The optimum pH for activity of pepsin is 1.8. Pepsin is a strong endopeptidase and …

The pancreatic juice contains inactive enzymes trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, pro-carboxypeptidases, amylases, lipases and nucleases. Trypsinogen is activated by an enzyme, enterokinase, secreted by the intestinal mucosa into active trypsin, which in turn activates the other enzymes in the pancreatic juice.

In the duodenum, trypsin catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds, breaking down proteins into smaller peptides. The peptide products are then further hydrolyzed into amino acids via other proteases, and then absorption occurs into the bloodstream. …

Pancreatic juice secreted by the pancreas contains a variety of enzymes, such as trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, pancreatic lipase, amylase etc. Trypsin and chymotrypsin help digest proteins; amylase help in digestion of carbohydrates; and lipase to break down fats. So, pancreatic juice helps in digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and protein.
