Solution

The correct option is A acidic
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The chyme which enters the duodenum is acidic due to the action of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Small intestine receives bile juice from the liver which is alkaline. Thus, chyme is also transformed into alkaline medium by the bile secreted into the small intestine.
