Explanation:

It helps break down ingested tissues for attack by digestive enzymes; it provides the correct pH for the action of those enzymes; it converts a catalytically inactive proenzyme to an active enzyme (as we just saw); and it destroys invading microorganisms in the stomach contents.

Answer:

This acid creates a low pH environment in the stomach. The stomach acid helps in the digestion of food by degrading the food molecules; activates stomach proteases, in other words digestive enzymes; and prevents pathogenic infection.
