Mrs. Lopez has the most difficulty initiating digestion of proteins after her stomach is removed. The correct option is C.

Explanation:

When the stomach is removed due to complications such as in cancers the food eaten directly goes to intestine. Without stomach Mrs Lopez will have difficulty in starting the digestion of protein.

The digestion of protein takes place and starts in the stomach and duodenum of intestine. There are enzymes as pepsin, trypsin and chyomtrypsin secreted  by stomach and pancreas. Pepsin breaks the peptide bonds of protein.

The HCl and the enzymes in stomach initiates the process of digestion of protein. The amino acids formed are ardent in various metabolic processes and repair.

lipids and carbohydrate digestion starts from the mouth only as salivary amylase and lipase initiates the process.
