Why hcl is present in stomach not the another acid |
|
Answer» Hcl is present in stomach for two reasons 1- to activate Pepsin from pepsinogen.2- to act as a wall to protect the stomach fr9m being dissolved by Pepsin Hydrochloric acid plays an important role in food digestion. The acid is made by parietal cells in the stomach lining and does its job in the stomach cavity, or lumen. ... Other stomach lining cells known as chief cells make a substance called pepsinogen. Hydrochloric acid converts pepsinogen into an enzyme called pepsin. Thank you?? Because it helps to neutralise the base which is present in stomach |
