Question

Common feature shared by salivary amylase, pancreatic lipase and pepsin is that they are all

• A. Protien splitting enzymes
• B. Proteinaceous in nature
• C. Act at acidic pH
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D None of the above

Name of the enzyme	Salivary amylase	Pancreatic lipase	Pepsin
Functions	Hydrolyze starch into maltose	Breakdown of fats into smaller molecules called fatty acids and glycerol	Breakdown protein into small peptides ( i.e. protease)
pH	Work at acidic pH (6 - 7)	Work at alkaline pH ( around 8)	Work at acidic pH ( 1.5 -2)
Organ	Salivary gland (mouth)	Pancreas	Stomach
Nature	Carbohydrates	Lipids	Proteinaceous

So, 'All the options are incorrect'.
