What helps making the acidic food alkaline that is coming from the stomach?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Bile.

The substance that helps make acidic food alkaline as it comes from the stomach is bile . Bile is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It is released into the small intestine where it neutralizes stomach acid, helping to create an alkaline environment. This neutralization is essential for the proper functioning of digestive enzymes in the small intestine, facilitating effective digestion and absorption of nutrients.
