Detailed explanation-1: -Chyme or chymus (/kaɪm/; from Greek khymos, “juice") is the semi-fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by a person’s or an animal’s stomach, through the pyloric valve, into the duodenum (the beginning of the small intestine).
Detailed explanation-2: -(DOO-ah-DEE-num) The first part of the small intestine. It connects to the stomach. The duodenum helps to further digest food coming from the stomach.
Detailed explanation-3: -The duodenum is the first and shortest segment of the small intestine. It receives partially digested food (known as chyme) from the stomach and plays a vital role in the chemical digestion of chyme in preparation for absorption in the small intestine.
Detailed explanation-4: -The duodenum is the first part of the small intestine. It is located between the stomach and the middle part of the small intestine, or jejunum. After foods mix with stomach acid, they move into the duodenum, where they mix with bile from the gallbladder and digestive juices from the pancreas.
