Pepsin is an enzyme in the stomach that begins the digestion of proteins by splitting them into smaller pieces. It is a gastric protease; pepsin is secreted in an inactive form, pepsinogen, which is activated by stomach acid. enzyme produced in the mucosal lining of the stomach that acts to degrade protein.
study island answer......stomach........you people need to actually read the question instead of copy paste for all of them
The organ that makes pepsin is the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme. This enzyme is known for breaking up food into peptides.
stomache
The stomach produces several chemicals to digest food. Some are enzyme pepsin, hydrochloric acid, gastric lipase and pepsinoge, which are digestive enzymes.
No, pepsin is a protein digestive enzyme.
No Gland produces Pepsin, however the Stomach produces Pepsin to break down proteins when you eat a steak for example.
Yes, it is.
the stomach
Pepsin is a digestive enzyme in the stomach, breaking down proteins into polypeptides.

The small intestine and the salivary glands are the organs of the digestive system that produces the enzyme amylase.
Pepsin is a digestive protease (EC 3.4.23.1) released by the chief cells in the stomach that functions to degrade food proteins into peptides. From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepsin
The stomach produces several chemicals to digest food. Some are enzyme pepsin, hydrochloric acid, gastric lipase and pepsinoge, which are digestive enzymes.
pancreatic produces hormones such as insulin, glucagon and other cells of pancreatic produces digestive enzymes such as Pepsin and Amylase.
digestive juices consit of digestive enzymes (strictly says, proteases) such as renin, pepsin, trypsin and other molecules that helps in digesting proteins
