Question

Which one of the following options is matching the site of action on the given substrate, the enzyme acting upon it and the end product ?
  1. Small intestine : Proteins Pepsin Amino acids
  2. Stomach : Fats Lipase Micelles
  3. Small intestine.: Starch αamylase Disaccharide (maltose)
  4. Duodenum : Triglycerides Trypsin Monoglycerides

A
Small intestine : Proteins Pepsin Amino acids
B
Stomach : Fats Lipase Micelles
C
Small intestine.: Starch αamylase Disaccharide (maltose)
D
Duodenum : Triglycerides Trypsin Monoglycerides
Solution
Verified by Toppr

During digestion, starch is partially transformed into maltose by the pancreatic or salivary enzymes called amylase; maltase secreted by the intestine then converts maltose into glucose.
So, option D is the correct option.
