Answer:
As the food moves through the gastrointestinal tract, and when it reaches the duodenum via the stomach, the food or the paste, that is, chyme becomes acidic because of the presence of acid in the stomach. When this acidic chyme moves towards the first section of the duodenum, it results in the discharging of cholecystokinin and secretin from the duodenal mucosa, which further instigates the pancreas to discharge alkaline pancreatic juice that comprises pancreatic enzymes and bicarbonate ions.
Now the bicarbonate ions will turn the chyme alkaline and is now known as chyle. It is made alkaline as the pancreatic enzyme needs alkaline pH to function on food. The intestinal juice is also secreted due to the discharging of similar hormones as mentioned above. However, the difference is that both the mechanical stimulus and nervous stimulus results in the discharging of intestinal juice, though it is not true for pancreatic juice.

The salient features of this case are severe headache, high grade fever, and a stiff neck (nuchal rigidity). These are classic signs and symptoms of meningitis. Therefore the nurse should look for other signs and symptoms that will support the diagnosis of meningitis with the hallmark of meningeal inflammation (i.e. Brudzinski's sign, Kernig's sign, passive neck flexion test, etc.)
