Hello there! 

The answer is enzymes. 
Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means they decrease the amount of activation energy needed to start a reaction, therefore speeding up the rate of the reaction. They are part of the protein macromolecule group. Without them, our bodies would not process things efficiently or fast enough for us to live.

Hope I helped. Have a nice day.

Choose all the true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis.
klio [65]

Answer: The true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis are;

1. Hydrochloric acid in gastric juices cause protein denaturation.

2. In small intestine trypsin attacks peptide bonds.

3.free amino acids are absorbed by the intestinal wall.

Explanation:

Protein digestion occurs in the duodenum and stomach and it is the breakdown of proteins to amino acids by action of Enzymes like trypsin, pepsin.

Protein is digested by the hydrolysis of carbon-nitrogen bond. Mechanical digestion of protein begins in the mouth and it continues in the small intestine and stomach.

Chemical digestion starts in the stomach where by hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice denatures the protein and convert pepsinogen to pepsin enzyme which convert the protein in food to peptides. Trypsin attacks the peptide bond that involves the carboxyl group which breaks it to polypeptide. Exopepdisases and dipeptidases breaks it down to amino acids. The amino acids released by protein digestion is then absorbed by the intestinal wall
