Biology
1 answer:
Ilya [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Pepsinogen is the active form of pepsin.

Explanation:

Pepsin is a gastric protease belonging to the aspartic proteinase family which breaks down polypeptide chains into smaller peptides by hydrolyzing peptide bonds. Pepsin is found in the gastric juice where it digests proteins from foods together with other digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid. Moreover, pepsinogen is a precursor of pepsin which is secreted by the gastric chief cells of the human stomach and then is converted into pepsin (its active form) by hydrochloric acid.

How and why does the epidermis produce new skin cells?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

About 95 percent of the skin cells in the epidermis are devoted to creating new skin cells in the lower two levels of the epidermis, which then cycle to the top layer to help form the stratum corneum. Eventually the dead cells of the stratum corneum flake off as new keratinocytes move up, and the cycle repeats itself.
