Answer:
Pepsin and renin are enzymes secreted by the gastric pits in the stomach. Pepsin chemically digests proteins into polypeptides. Renin changes caseinogen, a milk protein, into casein, its insoluble form which can be better digested by enzymes. Trypsin and erepsin are enzymes in the small intestine.
