Solution

The correct option is C

Partially digested proteins


Gastric juice thoroughly mixed with food until it becomes a semifluid mass is called chyme. Chyme contains food, water, salivary secretions, gastric secretions and partially digested carbohydrates and proteins in the stomach. The undigested proteins are already acted upon by the gastric enzymes. Fats are mainly digested in the small intestine.
