(i) Bile juice is secreted by liver . bile is stored in bile duct . function of bile juice is to provide basisity to liver during digestion .
(ii) Trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) is a serine protease from the PA clan superfamily, found in the digestive system of many vertebrates, where it hydrolyzes proteins. Trypsin is formed in the small intestine when its proenzyme form, the trypsinogen produced by the pancreas, is activated.

Hi,
Here is your answer
a) The liver secretes bile.
Bile is stored in Gall Bladder
Bile neutralizes the acid content of the food received from the stomach. Bile also reduces the surface tension of fats and break them into tiny droplets for providing a greater surface area for the action of enzymes.
b) Trypsin is an enzyme which acts on proteins and polypeptides to produce smaller peptides and amino acids.
Hope this helps you.
