Pepsin works best in acidic environments and it's optimal pH (the pH at which it works best) is 2.0
Pepsin in the stomach
A squash is the best food for that
Pepsin. It is located in the stomach. Pepsin helps with the breakdown of food and is a protein. A pH 2 is optimal for the human enzyme pepsin. If the pH level exceeds 7, pepsin becomes denatured or lose its structure; above pH 5,, it will increase function.
really
To assess ur digestive system functions thru scoping(endoscopy/colonscopy) and provide diagnosis and treatment(surveillance/medications/etc) for best possible patient outcomes.
body temperature
Pepsin becomes inactive when it reaches the small intestine where the pH is between 7 and 9. It functions best when in an acidic environment like the stomach.
What substance must be present in the stomach for pepsin to work best? *
not sure too
pepsin would work best at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 C) because it is the average normal body temperature.
Pepsin is found in the stomach of a human being. It turns food proteins into peptides and is considered a digestive protease.
