Answer:
D. Proteins that are consumed in the diet are absorbed as individual amino acids following digestion
Explanation:
Protein digestion begins from stomach and continues in small intestine too. In stomach, enzyme pepsin is responsible for breakdown of proteins into smaller fragments. The acidic environment created by hydrochloric acid facilitates this process.
Protein fragments move from stomach to small intestine where the main breakdown occurs. Pancreas releases two enzymes, trypsin and chymotrypsin in small intestine. These two enzymes along with some enzymes secreted by the small intestine breakdown the small protein fragments into individual amino acids which are finally absorbed via villi in small intestine.

Vitamins are not drugs or miracle cures.
Taking large doses of vitamins can be harmful because your body only needs vitamins in very tiny amounts.
Eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, wholegrains and cereals will give your body the vitamins it needs, at the right level and in the right balance.
Vitamin supplements can’t replace a healthy diet, but a general multivitamin may help if your diet is inadequate.
People who may need vitamin supplements include pregnant and breastfeeding women, people who consume alcohol in amounts over the recommended level, drug users and the elderly.
