Answer:

(a) Hydrochloric acid is an essential acid in the stomach. It helps destroy bacteria, as well as other harmful species. ... HCl converts pepsinogen which is not active into pepsin to metabolize proteins in our stomach. HCl also acts as another stomach cover apart from mucus, to avoid the pepsin to digesting the entire stomach.

(b) Fat emulsification is the process of increasing the surface area of fats in the small intestine by grouping them into small clusters. This is the responsibility of bile, a liquid created by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Actual digestion of the fats is then accomplished by lipase, an enzyme from the pancreas.

(c) Pancreatic juice is produced by Pancreas and has many enzymes like trypsin, chymotrypsinogen, elastase, carboxypeptidase, pancreatic lipase, nucleases, and amylase. Out of these enzymes, Trypsin is the one that aids in the digestion of Protein.
