Solution

The correct option is C Ca
In young mammals milk protein caseinogens is digested by the help of an enzyme called rennin. It is secreted as prorennin, which changes into active rennin in the presence of $H C l$ . Rennin curdles milk protein caseinogens, which is hydrolysed into casein. Rennin converts casein into solid calcium paracaseinate in presence of $C a^{+ +}$ , so that pepsin can reduce it to proteoses.
