lactose; lactase

B.

lipases; micelles

C.

peptidases; proteins

D.

lactase; glucose

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

A. Lactose; lactase: Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose, not the other way around. 

 

B. Lipases; micelles: Lipases break down lipids (fats) into fatty acids and glycerol, not micelles. Micelles are formed as part of the digestion process but are not the substrate for lipases. 

 

C. Peptidases; proteins: Peptidases (or proteases) break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. This is the correct answer.

 

D. Lactase; glucose: Lactase breaks down lactose into glucose and galactose, not just glucose.
