What is the oval organ that sends fluid into the small intestine to chemically digest and neutralize chyme?
pancreas
What ions will neutralize the chyme?
Bicarbonate
What base would you add to chyme?
The pancreas secretes bicarbonate (HCO3-) to the chyme in the duodenum to neutralize it.
What organ secretes sodium bicarbonate into the duodenum to neutralize chyme?
pancreas!
What is contained in pancreatic juice to neutralize the acidity of chyme from the stomach?
Bile
When highly acidic chyme arrives in the duodenum which substance will neutralize the acidity?
bicarbonate
How is the pH of the stomach maintained?
Alkaline pancreatic juices are secreted into the small intestine and neutralize the acidic chyme.
Why is chyme so important?
When you eat food, the stomach turns that food into chyme, it is so important because chyme is what the small intestines digest. Think about it, if you ate a big piece of chicken and it wasn't turned into chyme, your intestines wouldn't be able to handle it.
Are the islet cells of pancreas producers of bicarbonate to neutralize chyme?
No. Thge islet cells of the pancreas produce insulin and glucagon
Partially digested food in stomach?
the food will digest in the small intestine by the stomsch and eshopagus
The pancreas secretes which substance to help the small intestine digest food?
carbohydrates, protein, and fat in the chyme.
What is the role of bicarbonate ions in the pancreas?
The pancreas secretes bicarbonate in order to neutralize the highly acidic chyme (dissolved/digested food) coming from the stomach.
