Detailed Solution

Concept: Trypsin is an enzyme that acts on proteins to break them down into simpler forms, catalysing the breakdown of proteins. An exocrine role that aids in digestion and an endocrine function that controls blood sugar are the two primary activities of the organ that secretes this enzyme.
Enterokinase, an enzyme released by the intestinal mucosa into active trypsin, stimulates trypsinogen, which then activates the opposing enzyme in the pancreatic fluids. A proteolytic enzyme called trypsin breaks apart peptide chains. Proteolytic enzymes found in pancreatic juice react with the proteins, proteoses, and peptones in the chyme (bolus) before it enters the gut.
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
