Select the best explanation for why protease enzymes are secreted in inactive forms.
◦ The immunoglobulins protecting the digestive tract would be digested without proper regulation of protein digesting enzymes.
◦ The enzymes would digest each other if they were not properly regulated.
◦ Inactive enzymes will simply be expelled with the feces if no protein is present in the digesting food, this will help to conserve energy.
◦ The cells producing inactive enzymes are themselves protected from the enzymes until they are safely within the lumen of the GI tract.
