Answer:

  • HCl is one of the gastric juices secreted by stomach.
  • HCl converts the inactive enzyme pepsinogen into its active form pepsin.
  • Pepsin digests proteins and breaks them into amino acids.
  • HCl also kills harmful pathogens or particles in our food when it reaches the stomach through the gastrointestinal duct.
