if hcl is not secreted in the stomach, the protein digestion cannot be done. The acids directly enters and may rupture the digestive tract
1)It helps us by killing the micro-organisms presnt in body.
2)If HCL is not secreted in stomach there will be no digestion of proteins.
3)It functions as ti kill the microbes,if its not secreted then we may fall sick or ill.
4) Hence,HCL is important for our body.
work of hcl is kill the microbes which are present in food
Funtion of HCL is to kill the microbes present in the food if HCL is not secreats then microbes will not die
digestion of protein will not take place as pepsinogen will not converted into pepsin which is done by HCl
HCl help in digestion of protein and help the immune system. HCl gives specific medium or certain pH level due to which certain enzymes activate. Enzymes such as pepsin or protease which breakdown the protein into its simpler form (amino acid). If HCl is not present in the stomach then the digestion of protein does not take place and it remain as it .
HCl also kill the microbes which is present or come during eating . due to its high concentration the microorganism is kill and in this way it helps to the immune system . If HCl is not present maybe we fall sick everyday.
If HCl will not be secreted by the oxyntic cell in gastric cavity. The proteolytic enzyme pepsinogen wouldn’t be activated , which is naturally present in inactive state.
Resulting in indigestion of proteins in stomach
