Answer 1

Protein breakdown into amino acids is the statement that correctly explains the complex molecule.

Option (c);

Step-by-step explanation:

Cells in our body carry put several chemical reactions which in turn keep us healthy. All these reactions are collectively called metabolism. With the breakdown of complex molecules, it releases a lot of energy into the body.Through this process, Proteins are broken down into amino acids.

Various enzymes, specifically pepsin and hydrochloric acid breaks proteins into individual amino acids. They on further broken into a-keto acids. These amino acids reduces body weight and improves energy in the human body.
