Solution

The correct option is B duodenum
The small intestine is divided into three regions, i.e., duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.
The stomach opens into the first part of small intestine called duodenum, which is a U-shaped structure.
Jejunum is the middle part where most of the absorption occurs and it finally opens into the ileum which is the third part of the small intestine.
