Question

why are trypsin and pepsin secreted ininactive form​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Trypsin and Pepsin, cannot be produced in an active form because it has the ability to destroy proteins.

2. Our cells are made of proteins, from the plasma membrane to the nuclear membrane.

3. So both enzymes produced in an active form will destroy the cells that produce them, which is really bad for you.

4. Thus, they are produced in inactive forms.
