Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The end products of protein digestion are indeed amino acids. This is because when protein is consumed, it is broken down into its component amino acids through the action of enzymes in the stomach and small intestine. These amino acids are then absorbed into the bloodstream and used by the body for various functions, including building new proteins. Additionally, pancreatic amylase is not involved in protein digestion (choice A is incorrect), and the absorptive cells of the small intestine do not remove acid groups from amino acids (choice B is incorrect). Finally, a healthy person can typically digest and absorb around 90% of the protein in their food (choice D is incorrect).
