  1. Which enzyme is present in all members of the animal kingdom except Protozoa?
    1. Insulin
    2. Pepsin
    3. Renin
    4. Amylase
Correct Option: D

Digestion in Protozoa is carried on by several enzymes such as peptidase, proteinase, lipase, etc. For example, Insulin has important role in the glucose uptake of protozoa. However, protozoa lack amylase which is required for the digestion of fats and starch. It is due to the absence of amylase that protozoa such as amoeba cannot digest fats and starch.
