Question

We now know that a lack of the hormone insulin causes diabetes. In the early
twentieth century there was no known cure for diabetes.
Frederick Banting and Charles Best carried out a number of experiments on dogs.
In the first experiment they removed part of the pancreas from a healthy dog (dog A).
They ground up the pancreas tissue and injected an extract into dog B, whose pancreas had been
removed to make it diabetic. Dog B's diabetes was not cured.
Banting thought that an enzyme produced in the pancreas of dog A had digested the
hormone before it was injected.
Name the enzyme that might have been responsible for digesting the hormone.We now know that a lack of the hormone insulin causes diabetes. In the early
