Answer:
-Due to acidic pH of stomach.
Explanation:
Enzymes are generally made up of protein molecules and work at an optimum pH and temperature. This is because at change in pH and temperature leads to denaturation of proteins that cause change in active site of enzyme.
For trypsin, optimum pH is slightly basic as pH (7.5). So, trypsin would become non-functional at acidic pH due to denaturation and loss of active site.
Trypsin is a pancreatic enzyme that works at small intestine as pH of small intestine is slightly basic.Thus, if the trypsin was secreted in stomach instead of pancreas, it would be non-functional as stomach has acidic pH due to stomach acid.

Answer: W = 6.4x10⁻²¹J
Explanation: <u>Work</u> is the energy transferred to or from an object due to the application of a force along a displacement.
The ion Na is gaining energy to move from a lower potential to a higher one.
For this to happen, the work done is calculated as
in which
W is work in Joules (J)
q is charge in Coulomb (C)
is potential difference in Volts (V)
The ion Na has one positive charge. In coulombs, the charge is
q = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C
The potential difference in Volts is
= 40x10⁻³ or 4x10⁻²V
Calculating
W = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹. 4x10⁻²
W = 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J
The work done to move an ion of sodium from the exterior to the interior is 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J.
