the tibial collateral ligament can be damaged when the knee is impacted on lateral surface -

Sprain is mild stretch or tear , Sprain is partial tear and Sprain is full tear of the ligament .

Explanation:

Tibial Collateral ligament

Tibial Collateral ligament is one of the four important ligaments in knee. It joins femur with tibia or shinbone. The kneecap sits in the middle of this joint. Ligaments are very sensitive to strains. Tibial collateral ligament is most common ligament to get damage, specially for athletes. There could be three form of injury to this ligament.

Grade 1

Sprain is mild stretch or tear,

Grade 2

Sprain is partial tear and

Grade 3

Sprain is full tear of the ligament.

The damage occurs due to sudden force which is extensive for the ligament and it overstretches. Sudden impact on lateral surface will push the knee sideways, giving stress on the ligament, making it overstretch; and if the force is too great ligament will tear.

Stells [14]

There is no option provided related to the experiment that is conducted to test the effect of pepsin under various conditions. However, answering the question will be easier if students understand the conditions under which pepsin works best. Pepsin will be active and work best in acidic conditions with pH values ranging from 1.5 to 2.5.

<h3>Why would pepsin work better in acidic environments?</h3>

Pepsin is a digestive enzyme that aids in the digestion of proteins contained in food. Pepsin is secreted by gastric chief cells as a dormant zymogen known as pepsinogen. Parietal cells in the stomach lining release hydrochloric acid, which lowers the stomach's pH. Pepsin is activated by a low pH, 1.5 to 2, and works optimally at pH 1.8 since the carboxylic acid group, which is located on the amino acid in the active site of pepsin, must be protonated, or connected to a hydrogen atom. At low pH, the carboxylic acid group protonates, allowing it to catalyze the chemical process of chemical bond breakdown.
