Solution

The correct option is C All of the above
The pancreatic enzymes have following functions:
1. Amylase digests the remaining complex carbohydrates into sugars by maltase, sucrase and lactase
2. Trypsin, chymotrypsin, and elastase all digest proteins
3. Lipase digests triglycerides into fatty acids and monoglycerides.
Hence without pancreas digestion cannot take place.
