Explanation:

The stomach cavity has a highly acidic pH (around 1.5 - 3.5) due to hydrochloric acid secretion for digestion. The small intestine has a slightly alkaline pH (around 7 - 8) as pancreatic and intestinal secretions neutralize the acidic chyme from the stomach. The oral cavity has a near - neutral pH (around 6.5 - 7.5) and the large intestine has a slightly acidic to neutral pH. So the stomach cavity is acidic and the small intestine is alkaline, on either side of neutral.

C. Stomach Cavity, D. Small intestine
