AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To analyze the assertion and reason provided in the question, we will break down the statements step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states: "Pancreatic amylase digests protein to amino acid." - **Evaluation**: This statement is incorrect. Pancreatic amylase is an enzyme that specifically digests carbohydrates, particularly starches, into simpler sugars. It does not digest proteins. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states: "Pancreatic amylase breaks the peptide bond of protein." - **Evaluation**: This statement is also incorrect. Peptide bonds are the bonds that link amino acids together in proteins. The enzymes responsible for breaking these peptide bonds are proteases, such as pepsin and trypsin, not amylases. ### Step 3: Conclusion Since both the assertion and the reason are false, we can conclude that neither statement is correct. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. ---
