why are proteases generally released in inactive form

1.	why are proteases generally released in inactive form
Answer» Proteases\xa0are\xa0released in inactive form\xa0because they are\xa0enzymes\xa0that are required only when there needs to be a balance or breaking down of the formed proteins in the body.\xa0Proteases are secreted in an inactive state because if they were active, then they could digest the cells in which they are stored. This would lead to tissue damage via the "digestion" of healthy tissue.
