Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

The correct answer is - option B.

Explanation:

Pancreatic juice is the secretion of fluid from the pancreas that contain different enzymes that help in digestion and absorption of food and nutrients. The pancreatic juice is alkaline in nature as trypsinogen, amylase, nucleases and more that helps in the digestion of fat, protein, and carbohydrate.

These enzymes and juice help in the acidity of the juices by releasing the bicarbonate in the which acts as the buffer to the acidity and neutralize it. Neutralizing the gastric acidity helps in maintaining pH to the level for enzymes to act and absorption of the nutrients.

Thus, the correct answer is - option B.
