Correct option is D
The correct answer is (d) Stomach.
· Pepsin is an enzyme secreted in the stomach.
· It is produced in an inactive form called pepsinogen by the stomach lining, which is then activated by stomach acid to become pepsin.
· Pepsin plays a key role in breaking down proteins into smaller peptides during digestion.
Information Booster:
· Liver: Produces bile but not pepsin.
· Mouth: Produces enzymes like amylase, but not pepsin.
· Kidney: Responsible for filtering blood but does not produce digestive enzymes.
