hey!!

HCl also has another important role to play in the stomach during the digestion process. The presence ofHCl in the body of the stomachcauses the activation of enzymes. One of the proteins in HCl is used to convert the enzyme pepsinogen into pepsin. Pepsin breaks up the peptides from the protein.
