Question

What is the role of mucus in stomach?

Answer 1

Stomach mucus protects the gastrointestinal cells from the damage that gastric juices can cause. ...Stomach acid comes from the parietal cells, a type of stomach cell, and it is a hydrochloric acid, which is a solution of water and hydrogen chloride. This allows the environment in the stomachto be highly acidic.

________________________________________________________________________
To protect the stomach from being digested by it’s own acid. Stomach fluids contain hydrochloric acid or HCL, a very strong substance which could burn a hole in your hand if you poured a little in it. The role of that acid is to help start digestion by changing the structure of proteins in the diet and to change some minerals to a more absorbable form. It also kills most bacteria, helping control our bacterial flora.
