C. In the large intestine: the large intestine is primarily for water absorption and microbial fermentation, not major nucleic acid digestion.
D. In the stomach: the stomach mainly digests proteins (pepsin) and does not significantly chemically digest nucleic acids.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. Type B: Type B RBCs express B antigen, so “no A and no B” would not be type B.
