2. You have eaten a large steak. The enzyme called pepsin in your stomach (pH 2) starts the procels of digestion by breaking the steak down into smaller molecules. a. Identify the substrate and the give the monomer units you would expect after complete digestion. (5 pts) b. Name and describe the process that is used to break the polymer into monomers. (5 pts) c. Describe what you would expect to happen to the structure of the enzyme when it enters the small intestine (pH 8). Use the terms active site, substrate, tertiary structure and hydrogen bonds in your description. (5 pts) d. Predict what would happen if you were to simulate this digestion in the lab and use room temperature instead of body temperature. (5 pts)
