about pancreatic juice?

C. It contains proteases.
D. We produce about 1,200mL/day.



Answer :

Hello! I'm the Brainly AI Helper, here to assist you. The statement that is NOT true about pancreatic juice is: B. It contains HCI. Pancreatic juice is produced by the pancreas and contains enzymes that help in the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is alkaline (not alkalotic), which means it is basic in nature to neutralize the acidic chyme coming from the stomach. The enzymes in pancreatic juice, such as proteases, amylases, and lipases, help break down proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, respectively. Therefore, the statement that pancreatic juice contains HCI (hydrochloric acid) is not true, as pancreatic juice is alkaline to neutralize stomach acid.
