Answer:

, if HCl were not secreted in the stomach, then pepsin would not be activated. This would affect protein digestion. A pH of about 1.8 is necessary for proteins to be digested. This pH is achieved by HCl.

Answer:

  • Hydrochloric acid is secreted by the glands present on the stomach walls.

  • It dissolves bits of food and creates an acidic medium.

  • Therefore, if HCl were not secreted in the stomach, then pepsin would not be activated.

  • This would affect protein digestion.
