Q94 / 200 · NEET 2006 · Chemistry

During the process of digestion, the proteins present in food material are hydrolysed to amino acids. The two enzymes involved in the process: Figure
are respectively:

  • A
    invertase and zymase
  • B
    amylase and maltase
  • C
    diastase and lipase
  • Correct answer
    D
    pepsin and trypsin

Solution

In the process of digestion, the proteins present in food material are hydrolysed to amino acids. Figure
Related Theory In the absence of enterokinase, trypsinogen is not converted into the trypsin and thus the digestion of protein will be incomplete.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
