In the following flowchart about protein digestion , P, Q ,R and S enzymes.
`"Proteins"overset(P)to " Proteoses and Peptones " overset(Q)to " Polypeptides" overset(R)to "Dipetides"overset(S)to " Amino acids "`
The correct information of enzymes P, Q,R and S is

A

P : produced by Intestine as a proenzyme stage and is activated at alkaline pH
Q : produced by pancreas as acts a proenzyme and is activated by an intestinal enzyme
R : produced by stomach as a proenzyme stage and is activated at acidic pH
S : produced by pancreas in a active state

B

P : produced by stomach as a proenzyme stage and is activated by an intestinal at acidic pH
Q : produced by pancreas as acts a proenzyme and is activated by an intestinal enzyme
R : produced by pancreas in a active state
S : produced by intestine in an active state

C

P :produced by stomach as a proenzyme stage and is activated at acidic pH
Q :produced by pancreas as acts a proenzyme and is activated by an intestinal enzyme
R : produced by intestine in an active state
S : produced by intestine in an active state

D

P : produced by stomach as a proenzyme stage amd is activated at acidic enzyme
Q: produced by pancreas as a proenzyme and is activated by an intestinal enzyme
R : produced by intestine as a proenzyme and is activated Q
S : produced by intestine in an active state

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the enzymes P, Q, R, and S in the protein digestion flowchart, we can break down the process step by step: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Enzyme P**: - The first step in protein digestion occurs in the stomach where proteins are broken down into proteoses and peptones. - The enzyme responsible for this is **Pepsin**, which is derived from its inactive form, **Pepsinogen**. - **P = Pepsin**. 2. **Identify Enzyme Q**: - After the stomach, the partially digested proteins (proteoses and peptones) move into the small intestine. - Here, pancreatic enzymes are activated to further digest these compounds into polypeptides. - The enzyme that converts proteoses and peptones into polypeptides is **Trypsin**. - **Q = Trypsin**. 3. **Identify Enzyme R**: - The next step involves the breakdown of polypeptides into dipeptides. - This process is facilitated by another pancreatic enzyme called **Chymotrypsin**. - **R = Chymotrypsin**. 4. **Identify Enzyme S**: - Finally, dipeptides are broken down into amino acids. - This final step is carried out by the enzyme **Dipeptidase**, which is present in the intestinal lining. - **S = Dipeptidase**. ### Summary of Enzymes: - **P = Pepsin** - **Q = Trypsin** - **R = Chymotrypsin** - **S = Dipeptidase** ### Final Answer: The correct information of enzymes P, Q, R, and S is: - P: Pepsin - Q: Trypsin - R: Chymotrypsin - S: Dipeptidase
