Solution

The correct option is C Chyme
When the food enters into the stomach, the gastric gland releases the gastric juice. The food gets mixed with the juice by the movements of the muscles in the wall of the stomach. The partially digested food with the gastric juice is called as chyme. This is the thick and acidic semi-fluid molecule which is transported from the stomach to the small intestine.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
