The churning action of the stomach muscles physically breaks down the food. The stomach releases acids and enzymes for the chemical breakdown of food. The enzyme pepsin is responsible for protein breakdown. The stomach releases food into the small intestine in a controlled and regulated manner.

MUCUS is secreted by the walls of stomach along with HCl acid and Pepsin.
As we know the HCl acid is corrosive and therefore the mucus forms a protective lining preventing the corrosion of stomach walls.
The lining of mucus is replaced periodically once in 4 days or once in a week to ensure that the stomach isn't harmed.
Hope it helps.....
