Answer to Question 1

A
Pancreatic secretions contain bicarbonate that decreases the acidity of chyme from the stomach. Acidic chyme enters the duodenum, neutralized chyme leaves the duodenum. The bolus goes down the esophagus but is not acidic until it is mixed with acidic stomach secretions. Low-density lipoproteins leave the liver in the blood stream and are not affected by pancreatic secretions into the intestines.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Whole grains are recommended for most grain servings, such as whole wheat bread, whole-grain cereals, whole wheat pasta, and brown rice.
