Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Trypsin is an enzyme that is important for the digestion of proteins. It is synthesized in the pancreas and released into the small intestine where it breaks down proteins into smaller components called peptides. It does not work in the stomach, but rather in the small intestine where it is activated by other enzymes. It is not made in the liver.
