nevsk [136]
"<span>The digestive juices in your stomach break down the food into a thick liquid called chyme which then is passed into the small intestine."

</span>Chyme is the result of the partial chemical and mechanical digestion that occurs over the bolus in the stomach. It is a <span>semi-fluid mass of p</span><span>artially digested food, digestive enzymes, water, and HCl (so it has a very low pH). By stomach movements, the chyme is pushed against the </span>pyloric valve and passes in very small quantities to the duodenum, which is the beginning of the small intestine.
