Question

where is sucrase found in the human body? multiple choice in the liver on the microvilli of the small intestine on the gastric surface in the pancreas

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Sucrase is an enzyme that breaks down sucrose. It is located on the microvilli (brush border) of the small intestine's epithelial cells, where it helps in carbohydrate digestion. The liver (metabolizes nutrients, not a site for sucrase), gastric surface (stomach has pepsin for protein, not sucrase), and pancreas (secretes pancreatic amylase, not sucrase on its own surface) are not the correct locations.

Answer:

B. On the microvilli of the small intestine
