because it has lots of enzymes that help to break down those large proteins into amino acids!
proteins break into amino acids ;)
The lysosomes break proteins into Amino Acids

Yes, an enzyme produced in the stomach that helps break down proteins into amino acids is called pepsin. It is secreted by the stomach lining in an inactive form known as pepsinogen, which is activated by the acidic environment of the stomach. Pepsin plays a crucial role in the digestion of dietary proteins, facilitating their breakdown into smaller peptides and amino acids for absorption in the intestines.
Yes, proteins are made up of amino acids. When proteins are ingested and digested in the body, they are broken down into individual amino acids that are then used by cells to build new proteins or for other essential functions.
1. First you chew up your proteins in your mouth and turn them into extremely small pieces, or at least you should. 2. Proteins are generally digested in your stomach. The acid environment allows proteins to unfold. Proteins are made from amino acids. The body prefers to break down proteins to the basic amino acids and then the amino acids. Then it uses the amino acids to produce the proteins that it wants. (fats and carbohydrates are digested in the intestines.) 3. The walls of the stomach and small intestine produce mucus protecting them from digestive justices.
To break down proteins into their amino acids
Protease is an enzyme so it would break down into amino acids. (If you meant protein then the same is true)
Amino acids are not involved in digesting anything. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are biological polymers and amino acids are the monomers. Digestive enzymes digest proteins to obtain amino acids which the body can then utilize for various purposes.
Proteases breaks-down proteins into peptides & amino acids
Protease enzymes break down proteins into amino acids. These amino acids can then be absorbed and used by the body for various functions like building new proteins, repairing tissues, and providing energy.
