Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Chyme is a mixture of food and gastric fluid that is produced after the food has been partially digested by the stomach. Feces and intestinal fluid are products of the large intestine and are not components of chyme. Bile and emulsifiers are produced by the liver and are added to the chyme in the small intestine.
