Question
Carboxypeptidase, a pancreatic enzyme, acts on which substrate?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Carboxypeptidase acts on peptides, removing amino acids one at a time from the carboxyl (C-terminal) end. This exopeptidase activity produces free amino acids that can be absorbed.
Hint
This enzyme removes single amino acids from the end of peptide chains.
