The enzyme(s) called ____________ break(s) down the substrate called_________________.
lactose; lactase
lipases; micelles
peptidases; proteins
lactase; glucose
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.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A. Small intestine; small intestine: Both amino acids and monosaccharides are absorbed in the small intestine, and fatty acids are also absorbed in the small intestine, where they are reassembled into triglycerides and incorporated into chylomicrons.
B. Small intestine; liver: Amino acids and monosaccharides are absorbed in the small intestine, but fatty acids are absorbed in the small intestine, not directly in the liver.
C. Stomach; small intestine: Amino acids and monosaccharides are absorbed in the small intestine, not the stomach, and fatty acids are absorbed in the small intestine, not the stomach.
D. Stomach; large intestine: Amino acids and monosaccharides are absorbed in the small intestine, and fatty acids are absorbed in the small intestine, not the stomach or large intestine.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
A. the embryo; part of the placenta. The embryoblast (inner cell mass) will become the embryo, but the trophoblast will become part of the placenta, not the embryo.
B. part of the placenta; the embryo. The trophoblast forms part of the placenta and helps in its development, while the embryoblast (inner cell mass) will develop into the embryo.
C. part of the placenta; the yolk sac. While the trophoblast does contribute to the formation of the placenta, the embryoblast (inner cell mass) develops into the embryo, not the yolk sac. The yolk sac is derived from extraembryonic mesoderm and endoderm, not the inner cell mass directly.
D. the embryo; the yolk sac. The embryoblast (inner cell mass) develops into the embryo, but the trophoblast does not become the yolk sac. The yolk sac is formed from structures surrounding the embryo, not from the trophoblast itself.
