Solution
The correct option is B Insulin is peptide
If our body is not producing insulin, we must take it by injection or a pump to live. Insulin currently cannot be taken by mouth because the digestive juices in our stomach and intestine will break down the insulin before it has a chance to get into our bloodstream to do its job.So, the correct option is 'Insulin is a peptide'
