Matthew has a meal of steak and fries. which enzyme is primarily involved in the digestion of the proteins in the steak?

Pepsin

Explanation:

Digestion is a metabolic process in which the food is broken down into simple components so that it can be absorbed by the body. The digestion takes place by physical and chemical means in a digestive system.

Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down protein present in the food into small peptides. It is a protease enzyme that means it breaks down protein into amino acids. It is produced in the stomach of the human body, where it aids in digestion of proteins present in the food.
