Question

Pancreatic juice contains
(a)Trypsin, lipase and maltase
(b)Pepsin, trypsin and Maltase
(c)Trypsin, Chymotrypsin, amylase and lipase
(d)Trypsin, pepsin and amylase

Answer 1

An organ located in the abdomen which executes both functions as endocrine as well as exocrine. This organ is the second largest gland in the human body.The juice can change the acidic food from stomach into slightly basic food.

Complete answer:
The pancreas is an organ found in our abdomen. It plays an essential role in converting the food that we consumed into fuel for the body's cells. The pancreas is involved in mainly 2 functions: an exocrine function that helps in digestion and an endocrine function that regulates blood sugar by the production of hormones.

Additional Information:
Pancreatic juice is made by enzymes like pancreatic proteases, pancreatic amylases, and pancreatic lipase. They are trypsin, chymotrypsin, amylase, and lipase.
The pancreatic juice contains different enzymes like protease, amylase, and lipase.
As we know, proteases are the enzymes that help for protein digestion. Similarly, pancreatic proteases help for protein digestion which includes trypsin and chymotrypsin.
Similarly, Amylases are the enzymes that help for the digestion of sugars/carbohydrates and Lipases helps for the digestion of fat.
The pancreas secretes pancreatic juices, containing digestive enzymes that help for the absorption of nutrients and digestion in the small intestine during the digestion process. As discussed before these enzymes help further to break down the carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.
-Pancreatic juices are secreted into the duodenum through the duodenal papilla.
-Trypsinogen is activated to trypsin by enteropeptidase in the intestinal lumen, trypsin activates the other enzyme precursors. Chymo-trypsinogen to chymotrypsin, pro-elastase to elastase, pro carboxypeptidases to carboxypeptidases. They also contain lipase, amylase, and nucleases.
So, the correct answer is, ‘'Trypsin, Chymotrypsin, Amylase, and Lipase.’'

Note: The pancreas is the organ which performs 2 functions, that is, both exocrine and endocrine function. As an exocrine, it functions in digestion of the food consumed as well as, an endocrine gland (that is: ductless glands) helps for the release of hormones and regulation of blood sugar by the production of the hormone Insulin.
