Solution
The correct option is B Trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen,lipase, amylase Pancreatic juice is a liquid secreted by the pancreas, which contains a variety of enzyme including trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, lipase and amylase. Trypsinogen is stored in the pancreas so that it may be released when required for protein digestion. Chymotrpsinogen is an inactive precursor of chymotrpsin, a digestive enzyme which breaks proteins down into smaller peptide. Lipase acts on the fats and amylase helps in digestion.
