Answer:

A) within the lumen of the small intestine.

Explanation:

The pancreas produces a variety of hormone-like amylase, proteases, lipases which can digest the food material.

The proteases like chymotrypsinogen and trypsinogen are produced by the pancreas in their inactive form as if active will digest the organ itself. Therefore these zymogens are stored in the secretory vesicles which release the enzymes in the pancreatic duct.

These zymogens are not activated until they reach the digestive tract that is when these enzymes enter the lumen of the small intestine, the enterokinase present there catalyzes the trypsinogen to trypsin. Trypsin converts the chymotrypsinogen to the chymotrypsin.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

  • Thomas Malthus argued that the food supply increased linearly while  population size increased exponentially
  • The central theme of Malthus' work was that population growth would always overpower food supply growth, creating perpetual states of hunger, disease, and struggle
  • The natural, ever-present struggle for survival caught the attention of Darwin, and he extended Malthus' principle to the evolutionary scheme
  • Malthus’ writings ultimately inspired Darwin’s  theory of evolution by natural selection

resources in every generation would be limited, therefore individuals in every generation would   have to compete for those resources.
