Answer:
MUCUS protects the wall of the stomach from hcl produced during digestion .
HCL makes the food acidic which facilitates the action of the enzyme pepsin . Also it kills the bacteria that entered the mouth during intake of food .
ENZYME helps the body in breaking down of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. This is necessary to allow for the absorption of nutrients and to maintain optimal health. Without these enzymes, the nutrients in the food would go waste.
