  1. The answer is the first one: juice.

Explanation:

  • Juice: Chyme is a semi-fluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach into the duodenum. The term "chyme" is derived from the Greek word "chymos," which means juice.
  • Ball or lump: This does not relate to the meaning of chyme.
  • Tumor: This is unrelated to chyme.
  • Swelling: This is not the correct meaning of chyme.
  1. The answer is the first one: small, glowing ember.

Explanation:

  • Small, glowing ember: The term "carbuncle" comes from the Latin "carbunculus," which means a small, glowing ember or a small piece of coal, reflecting its appearance.
  • Pointed shape: This is not the meaning of carbuncle.
  • Coal: While related, "carbuncle" specifically refers to a small, glowing ember rather than just coal.
