Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The stomach's gastric glands secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl), which creates an acidic environment necessary for the activation of pepsin and the initial digestion of proteins. The small intestine, with its vast surface area provided by villi and microvilli, is the primary site for the final digestion and absorption of most nutrients into the bloodstream. The liver is a large, multifunctional organ that continuously produces bile, which is stored in the gall bladder and released into the small intestine to emulsify fats. All statements are correct.
