hi friend!
Pepsin is the active protein-digesting enzyme of the stomach. Pepsin acts on protein molecules by breaking the peptide bonds that hold the molecules together. Digestion of protein is completed in the small intestine by the pancreatic enzymes trypsin, chymotrypsin, and carboxypeptidase.

Hey dear!!
Digestion in the stomach
Although digestion starts in the mouth, most of our food is digested in the stomach and the intestines.
⭐The enzymes present in the digestive juices start the digestion of proteins into amino acids.
⭐The hydrochloric acid in the stomach kills the germs and also helps the enzymes to work.
Gentle movements of the stomach wall, churn the food along with the digestive juices, to convert it into a semi-solid substance called chyme. Then, the food is passed through into the small intestine at intervals.
Hope helped!!
