Best answer

a. Bile- bile which is produced by liver helps in breaking down lipids to fatty acids (in small intestine). 

b. Lipase-Lipase breaks down dietary fats to fatty acids and glycerol. It is secreted by pancreas in our digestive tract. 

c. Salivary amylase- It is secreted by the salivary gland and it acts on starch present in the food and breaks it down into smaller carbohydrate molecules. 

d. Trypsin-Trypsin secreted by the pancreas, hydrolyses more protein present in food that isn’t broken down by pepsin earlier.
