B

Stomach-Fats `rarr` Lipase `rarr` Micelles

C

Duodenum - Triglycerides `rarr` Trypsin `rarr` Mono- glycerides

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct matching of the site of action, substrate, enzyme, and end product, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Options**: We have several options that provide a site of action, substrate, enzyme, and end product. We need to evaluate each one to determine if it is correct. 2. **Evaluate Option 1**: - **Site of Action**: Small intestine - **Substrate**: Protein - **Enzyme**: Pepsin - **End Product**: Not specified - **Analysis**: Pepsin is an enzyme that is secreted in the stomach, not the small intestine. Therefore, this option is incorrect. 3. **Evaluate Option 2**: - **Site of Action**: Stomach - **Substrate**: Fat - **Enzyme**: Lipase - **End Product**: Micelle - **Analysis**: Lipase does act on fats, but the end products of fat digestion are fatty acids and glycerol, not micelles. Thus, this option is also incorrect. 4. **Evaluate Option 3**: - **Site of Action**: Duodenum (part of the small intestine) - **Substrate**: Triglyceride - **Enzyme**: Trypsin - **End Product**: Not specified - **Analysis**: Trypsin is an enzyme that digests proteins, not triglycerides. Therefore, this option is incorrect as well. 5. **Evaluate Option 4**: - **Site of Action**: Small intestine - **Substrate**: Starch - **Enzyme**: Alpha amylase - **End Product**: Disaccharide (maltose) - **Analysis**: Alpha amylase is indeed an enzyme that acts in the small intestine to digest starch into disaccharides like maltose. This option is correct. ### Conclusion: The correct match is: - **Site of Action**: Small intestine - **Substrate**: Starch - **Enzyme**: Alpha amylase - **End Product**: Disaccharide (maltose) Thus, the fourth option is the correct answer. ---
