Solution

The correct option is A Protein
Trypsin is a protein-splitting enzyme, produced in the pancreas as an inactive protease trypsinogen. When it is secreted in the small intestine, it is activated by the intestinal enteropeptidase. Activated trypsin catalyses proteins into smaller peptides.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
