Explanation:
Water is taken up by the cells from the bloodstream and the resulting saliva secreted is isotonic. The serous cells produce serous saliva which is thin, watery and is composed of zymogen granules and contains more proteins, while mucous cells produce thick, viscous saliva containing mucopolysaccharides and mucin.
So, Saliva is neutral in nature....
