Gastric Juice Contains (1) Pepsin, Lipase and Rennin (2) Trypsin, Lipase and Rennin (3) Trypsin, Pepsin and Lipase (4) Trypsin, Pepsin and Renin

Answer: The correct option is (1).

Pepsin, lipase and rennin are found in gastric juice. Hydrochloric acid activates pepsinogen, the inert precursor produced by the stomach. Proteins are broken down into peptones by pepsin. Lipase is an enzyme that aids in the breakdown of fats in our bodies into their individual fatty acids. Rennin is a proteolytic enzyme that aids in the coagulation of milk.
