Question

the partially digested liquid mixture in the stomach is called: a chyme. b rugae. c ascites. d antrum.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Chyme: It is the semi - fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach, through the pyloric valve, into the duodenum.
  • Rugae: These are the folds in the inner lining of the stomach. They allow the stomach to expand when it fills with food and also help in the churning process.
  • Ascites: It is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity. It is not related to the normal digestive process in the stomach.
  • Antrum: It is a part of the stomach (the pyloric antrum). It is a region of the stomach rather than the partially digested liquid mixture.

Answer:

A. chyme
