I would go with decrease in pH of the stomach will distort the structure of peptides in food , which affects the action of the enzyme pepsin .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Considering this talking about pH, this involves stomach acids.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd imagine that if the acid became less acidic, you wouldn't be able to digest food as well.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct answer is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you both agree on A ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. It seems that it could be true.
