Ifdilute hydrochloric acid be added to a solution of pepsin in coldwater, the liquid exercises solvent powers over organic substances,especially animal ones, and a kind of artificial gastric juice is thusproduced. The natural gastric juice exercises a coagulative andalterative as well as solvent power upon the food, and 4 digestsor converts it into chyme. The canal which receives the chyme, called small intestine,extends from the pylorus, fig. 332, p, to
