Peptide bonds in proteins can be broken down by the enzyme peptidase. Adrian orders a hamburger and French fries for lunch. He adds cheese and mayonnaise to his hamburger, and then sits down to eat lunch with his friends. Which structure would MOST likely result from the action of peptidase in Adrian’s small intestine?

Amino acid is the structure would MOST likely result from the action of peptidase in Adrian’s small intestine.

Hence, amino acid is the correct answer.

Hello. I think the answer is small peptides and amino acids.

Explanation:

Proteins are polymers that their monomer is amino acid.

First digestion of proteins accurs in stomach.

Stomach enzymes digest proteins but not to amio acid. They digest it to small peptides.

Then the other proteins and small peptides enter the small intestine.

In small intestine peptidaze digests proteins and transform them to small peptide.

The small peptides that came from stomach are digested to amino acids and most of them is absorbed by the epithelial cells of intestine wall.

I hope you understand.
