(Answer:

The medium of the food will be acidic. In the intestine, bile juice secretions from the liver will make the medium basic.

Explanation:

The acidic food enters the intestine after exiting the stomach,where hydrochloric acid is secreted for the action of pepsin enzyme(in stomach). In the intestine pancreatic juices containing enzymes like trypsin and lipase require an alkaline medium for their action.This is done by the bile juice secreted from the liver.

Hope this helps!
