Pancreatic enzymes cannot catalyze the complete digestion of dietary proteins to amino acids in the intestine because
Question 20 options:
A. pancreatic proteases are zymogens. |
|
B. the pH in the small intestine is unfavorable for activity of pancreatic proteases. |
|
C. pancreatic proteases are endopeptidases. |
|
D. bacteria destroy pancreatic proteases in the small intestine. |
|
E. pepsin from the stomach is required to activate pancreatic proteases. |
The correct answer is c. pancreatic proteases are endopeptidases.
Pancreatic enzymes like trypsin, chymotrypsin and elastase are endopeptidases that break peptide bonds within protein molecule, except carboxypeptidases that cleaves single amino acid from C- terminal end
Aminopeptidases and dipeptidases are required for complete breakdown of proteins to amino acids

Which of the following is true of protein digestion and absorption? a) Pancreatic amylase and pepsin digest proteins in the small intestine b) Proteolytic enzymes are present as zymogens but are not activated until proteins are ingested c) Proteins are broken down into individual amino acids and are absorbed via facilitated diffusion d) Chymotrypsin is activated by pepsin and this activates all the other proteolytic enzymes

Which statement about protease secretion and activity during protein digestion is correct? A. Pepsin is a protease that degrades proteins in the small intestine. B. Secretin is a protease that neutralizes stomach acid during digestion. C. Cholecystokinin (CCK) triggers active protease secretion from the pancreas. D. Trypsinogen is a protease that converts zymogens into active proteases. E. Trypsinogen is the substrate of enteropeptidase in the small intestine.

Proteins contain the same 3 atoms as carbohydrates, and fat and those 3 atoms are? What does protein contain that carbohydrate and fat do not? Amino means? Proteins are synthesized from building blocks called? There are 20 amino acids in the body; nine are classified as: What is the difference between essential and nonessential amino acids? What is the name of the bond that unites one amino acids to one another? Discuss the difference between hydrolysis and condensation Digestion and...
Each day, the pancreas produces up to 1.5 L of pancreatic juices that enter the duodenum via the pancreatic duct. The pancreatic juices consist of water, salts, bicarbonate ions, and digestive enzymes. Bicarbonate ion raises the pH of the acidic chyme from the stomach, stopping the active ity of pepsin and allowing the pancreatic and intestinal enzymes to function. The various pancre. atic enzymes and their substrates are listed in Table 10.2. Table 10.2 Various enzymes produced by the pancreas...

Maltase Sucrase Lactase Lipase amylase Which of the following substances is the most acidic? Bile Saliva Pancreatic juice Gastric juice Intestinal juice...
How does your body use the protein once it has been ingested? Consider the following statements and select the correct ones regarding protein use. Select all that apply. ► View Available Hint(s) Amino acids are used to create new proteins. If you ingest more protein than your body needs, the protein is stored in muscle. The liver uses amino acids to create glucose. If calorie intake is inadequate, amino acids can be used for production of energy In this activity,...
