No. Vinegar contains acetic acid, a weak organic acid. The gastric juices in you stomach contain hydrochloric acid, which is a strong acid.
The acid in soda is a weak mixture of carbonic, phosphoric, and sometimes citric acids. This is the weakest of the three. The next strongest would be vinegar, which is normally 5% to 10% acetic acid. Stomach acid is much stronger than the other two, with a maximum pH between 1 and 2.
Its acidic because of the citric acid inside the lemon
acidic energy is the power inside of fruit. It can also power a light bulb and i did that topic in my science fair and won 1st place.
In the stomach there are gastric pits. An individual pit contains surface mucous cells and mucous neck cells, which secrete a coat of mucus and bicarbonate throughout the stomach. The Parietal cells (aka oxyntic cells), which are deeper within the pit, also produce bicarbonate.(parietal cells are also the ones who produce HCl) The bicarbonate is secreted into the blood stream and as the blood vessels carry the bicarbonate away some of it diffuses from the blood vessel into the mucus coat. This mucous coat containing bicarbonate is thus able to protect the inside of the stomach from the HCl. It's just like a lining in the stomach which is replaced every so often More simply put, cells in the stomach secrete mucus and a base, bicarbonate. This mucus coat containing the base is able to neutralize the acid secreted by another group of cells. The stomach contents is acidic, but the acid is neutralized by the mucus if the acid trys to come in contact with the cells of the stomach. violingal is the author=-] add her if read.
Stomach acid is used to break down the food that enters your stomach. Because this is acid, a mucus layer is on the inside part of your stomach's skin. If this layer is "burned' away, you may get a stomach ulcer.
because the inside of our stomach is protected by a mucosal layer that prevents its own digestion. Now, it doesn't mean that the inside of the stomach can never be damaged by the gastric juice. An ulcer occurs when this layer of mucus has been destroyed by the acidity of the gastric juice (with the help of certain bacterial infections in the stomach).
I believe the perforating gastric ulcer releases the acid, inside the stomach, which can then damages the pancreas, due to how close the pancreas and stomach are.
It is a reaction with gastric acids.
generation through mitosis of new cells to replace the stomach lining

Gastric juice is mixed with food in the stomach to promote digestion.
Acid, Mucus and Hormones. The hormones secreted by the stomach include proteases such as pepsinogen and prorennin. The acid is HCL (Hydrochloric acid). It helps in killing the germs, prevents the decay of food and also activates the inactive hormones into pepsin and rennin which help in the digestion of proteins. Mucus is secreted to protect the lining of stomach from corrosion due to the highly acidic HCL present in the stomach.
the walls of the stomach is alkaline and the food contain in the stomach is acidic.. it will not accept the nutrients to enter inside the stomach walls. the small intestine having villa in the walls and it ll absorb the nutrients in the food.
Hydrochloric acidThe parietal cells of the stomach produce H+ and Cl- ions separately, forming hydrochloric acid (HCl), which, along with potassium chloride (KCl) and sodium chloride (NaCl), comprises gastric acid. Hydrochloric acid is concentrated in the stomach (pH of 1-2), making the stomach a very acidic environment in which certain enzymes can function to digest proteins. See the related links below for more information on hydrochloric acid and its role in digestion.
Lobsters have their teeth in their stomach. They chew their food in their stomach, which is very close to their mouth, between three grinding surfaces that look like molar teeth called the "gastric mill"
A bee entering your mouth is far more likely to sting inside your mouth or your throat. By the time it reaches your stomach it probably will be dead, and it certainly wouldn't survive once it reached the highly acidic stomach juices.
A gastric ulcer is a 1/2-2 inch area on the lining of the inside of your stomach that has been worn away through some sort of contact of acid. Gastric ulcers are sometimes called stomach ulcers or peptic ulcers, though peptic ulcers can also refer to duodunal ulcers. Gastric ulcers are common among the Helicobacter pylori infection, an infection of the pyloric sphincter (the valve connecting the stomach and the upper small intestine). Treatment can be medications such as over-the-counter antacid pills, or your physician can prescribe stronger medications. Three ways to prevent gastric ulcers are to wash your hands before and after eating and going to the bathroom, not smoking, and not over-drinking.
