So technically the answer is C.

After the food enters your stomach the stomach muscles mix the food and liquid with digestive juices. The stomach slowly empties its contents called chyme into your small intestine

Answer:

C) Juices mix with the food and stomach muscles squeeze it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gastric juices are added in your stomach to turn your food into small particles that can be gobbled up by cells. Your body contains dangerous level of acids such as HCl but your cell lining in your inner cavities of your stomach prevent acid from burning you form within! Fun :D
