Answer:

Protein digestion occurs in the stomach and duodenum in which 3 main enzymes, pepsin secreted by the stomach and trypsin and chymotrypsin secreted by the pancreas, break down foodproteins into polypeptides that are then broken down by various exopeptidases and dipeptidases into amino acids.
