Food being digested in the stomach is in a highly acidic environment. When the food is released from the stomach into the small intestine, why is the environment no longer acidic?

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. Secretin increases the flow of bicarbonate ions from the pancreas into the small intestine to neutralize the stomach acid.
  2. Trypsinogen is activated, thus neutralizing the stomach acid.
  3. Bile salts from the gallbladder neutralize the stomach acid.
  4. When pepsinogen activates pepsin, one result is the neutralization of stomach acid in the stomach.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

You identify a previously unidentified plant species and decide to study its genetics. You establish true breeding strains for leaf shape (longer than wide vs equal length and width) and flower color (white vs. yellow). When you perform a dihybrid cross with these strains, you find that your results are very different than those predicted by a 9:3:3:1 ratio. You calculate a chi square and get a p value of less than 0.0001. Which of the following statements is most accurate based on this observation?
