2025/2026 Exam Questions and
Corresponding Answers with Surety of
100% Pass Mark
Limiting amino acids - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔an essential amino acid that is
present in dietary protein in an insufficient amount, thereby limiting the
body's ability to build protein
Complete proteins - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Foods containing all essential amino
acids (animal byproducts)
Efficient digestion and absorption of proteins - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔have little
loss
peptidases - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔hydrolysis of peptide bonds
types of peptidases - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔endopeptidases and exopeptidases
Endopeptidases - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔internal peptide bonds leading from large
polypeptides to small oligopeptides
Bonds not next to N- or C- terminus

, Exopeptidases - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔act on small oligopeptides to produce
amino acids and di/tripeptides
Contribution to hydrolysis increases as proteins become more digested
Peptide bonds next to N- or C-terminus
Protein digestion - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔beings in the stomach with pepsin
pancreatic enzymes inactive when secreted
brush border enzymes
Proteins are broken down into - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔tripeptides, dipeptides, and
free amino acids
Process of protein breakdown - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔dietary proteins go through
the mouth then the stomach (HCl and pepsin) and are denatured and
partially hydrolyzed. In the small intestine (trypsin, chymotrypsin,
aminopeptidase, and carboxypeptidase), the denatured protein is turned
into small peptides and amino acids. In the intestinal lining, amino acids are
in the blood stream.
Digestive enzymes - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔initially produces as zymogens and are
then activated when needed. Zymogens and proenzymes are the same
