Answer: Pepsin, Renin (in infants).
Explanation: Pepsin present in stomach is secreted which breaks complex proteins into amino acids or simpler proteins. In infants, due to the absence of pepsin, renin helps in breakdown of proteins.

- Salivary amylase (pH. 6.8) present in mouth breaks down starch into maltose.
- Stomach has a thin lining of mucus (secreted by Oxyntic cells).
- Gastric juice (pH 1-2) present in stomach gives an acidic medium to the food.
- Then it goes to the S. intestine, where bile juice is secreted by Liver gets mixed and gives an alkaline medium. It enables tripsinogen to convert into trypsin.
- Pancretic amylase is produced by pancrease which is mixed at duodenum.
