both __________ and __________ produce digestive enzymes.

stomach and small intestine
pancreas and small intestine
pancreas and stomach
small intestine and large intestine

Explanation:

The stomach produces pepsin (a digestive enzyme for protein digestion). The pancreas produces multiple digestive enzymes like pancreatic amylase (for carbohydrate digestion), trypsin (for protein digestion), and lipase (for fat digestion). The small intestine mainly has enzymes from pancreatic secretions and also some of its own (like maltase, sucrase, lactase), but the key is that both pancreas and stomach are primary producers of digestive enzymes among the options. The large intestine does not produce digestive enzymes.

Answer:

C. pancreas and stomach
