Which substance neutralizes stomach acid as chyme enters the small intestine?
Bicarbonate is the secretion that neutralizes stomach acid as chyme enters the small intestine. Bicarbonate is necessary because chyme is highly acidic. Bicarbonate is created in the pancreas.
What produces afluid that neutralizes stomach acid?
Intercalated ducts produce bicarbonate in the pancreas.
What is food that is converted into semi fluid in the stomach?
chyme
Why is it important for the pancreas to release bicarbonate into the small intestine?
It is important for the pancreas to release bicarbonate into the small intestine because the pancreatic fluid flows into the small intestines. The pancreatic fluid consists of enzymes that chemically digest chyme and contains bicarbonate which neutralizes the acid in chyme. So in order for the stomach to chemically digest the food it has to have the pancreatic fluid.
Food that leaves the stomach is in the form of a thick liquid called?
The liquid mixture of food in the stomach is called chyme.
What do you call the food in stomach that is changed to semi fluid?
Chyme.
Mixture formed in the stomach from digested food particles and gastric fluid?
chyme
What organ secretes buffers needed to neutralize the acidity of chyme and also secretes digestive enzymes?
Cells that line the stomach produce gastric acids. The other cells found in the stomach are also the ones that produce a fluid called a bicarbonate, which is a base, to neutralize stomach acid.
What is chyme and how does the stomach mix this material?
Chyme is the semi-fluid mass of partially digested food that passes from the stomach to the small intestine. The stomach mixes this material through peristalsis, a series of coordinated contractions of the stomach muscles that churn and mix the food with digestive juices to form chyme.
Is a semi fluid mass partly digested food expeld by stomach into the?
It is called chyme, and it passes from your stomach to your small intestine.
What is the mixture of food and digestive juices that leave the stomach?
The mixture of food and digestive juices that leave the stomach is called chyme. Chyme is a semi-fluid mass consisting of partially digested food, gastric juices, and enzymes that is passed from the stomach to the small intestine for further digestion and absorption of nutrients.
What is mixture of stomach fluids and food produced in the stomach by contracting stomach muscles?
The mixture of stomach fluids and food produced in the stomach by contracting stomach muscles is called chyme. Chyme is a semi-fluid mass that is created during the process of digestion and contains partially digested food along with gastric juices such as hydrochloric acid and enzymes. It moves from the stomach to the small intestine for further digestion and absorption of nutrients.
