Ans : The mucus helps to protect the stomach wall from its own secretions of hydrochloric acid .
If is not secreted hydrochloric acid will cause the erosion of inner lining of stomach leading to the formation of ULCERS in the stomach

Hey mate your answer is
✅✅✅✅
The lining of the stomach is coated with mucus to protect it from acid damage. ... Sometimes cells in the stomach lining are damaged by a factor other than an acid attack and are unable to make hydrochloric acid. Without enough acid, protein digestion in the stomach is difficult and bacterial overgrowth can occur.
Hope it helps
