    During the process of digestion, the proteins present in food materials are hydrolysed to amino acids. The two enzymes involved in the process\[\Pr oteins\xrightarrow{Enzyme(A)}Polypeptides\]\[\xrightarrow{Enzyme(B)}A\min o\,acids\] are:

    A) Diastase and lipase

    B) Pepsin and trypsin

    C) Invertase and zymase

    D) Amylase and maltase

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Pepsin and Trypsin are two enzymes involved in the process (hydrolysis of proteins) \[\Pr oteins\xrightarrow[Stomach]{Pep\sin /HCl}Polypeptides\]\[\xrightarrow[\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,chemotryp\sin  \\  \left( Pancreatic\,juice\,\operatorname{int}estine \right) \end{smallmatrix}]{Tryp\sin }Peptides\]\[\xrightarrow[\left( intestine \right)]{Peptidases}Amino\,acids\]
