The answer is the second one (or B): gastric juice.

Explanation for each option:

  • Saliva: This is the fluid produced in the mouth that contains enzymes like amylase, but it does not contain hydrochloric acid or pepsin.
  • Gastric juice: This is the digestive fluid produced in the stomach, which contains hydrochloric acid, water, pepsin, and mucus. These components help in the digestion of food.
  • Pancreatic juice: This is the fluid produced by the pancreas that contains digestive enzymes like amylase, lipase, and proteases, but it does not contain hydrochloric acid or pepsin.

Summary: The correct answer is gastric juice, as it includes hydrochloric acid, water, pepsin, and mucus, which are essential for the digestive processes in the stomach.
