Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pepsin is the major enzyme in the stomach associated with protein breakdown.

Answer: H
 Trypsin is an enzyme produced in the pancreas that also helps with protein digestion.

Answer: I
 Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down fats and is produced in the pancreas and small intestine.

Note: The other enzymes listed are involved in carbohydrate digestion (amylase, maltase, lactase, sucrase) or protein breakdown in the small intestine (peptidase). Bile is not an enzyme, but a fluid produced in the liver that helps to emulsify fats for digestion.
