The cells lining your stomach secrete a mucous that protects them from being damaged by caustic digestive enzymes. A stomach ulcer, for example, is the result when those cells fail to maintain that mucous and the cells are left exposed to digestive enzymes.
anti pepsin is secreted to neutralise the action of pepsin so no digestion can take place.the stomach lining is made up of mucous and if it gets eaten away by the stomach acids too quickly it can result in to health problems.pepsin acts in acidic medium
Your stomach is coated with mucus. Mucus is polysaccharide. Pepsin brakes only peptide bond. This bond is absent in the mucus. That is why your stomach wall is protected from attack by the pepsin. That is the miraculous design by the 'Nature'.
Your stomach produces a lot of mucus on the inside walls, or else yes it would be digested by itself
It is because it has a mucus layer to protect it from harm........
becuz its a juice
Gastric juice is produced in the stomach. Gastric juice is produced in the Gastric glands.
there is a lining of mucus around the entire stomach that prevents the gastric acid (gastric juice) from penetrating the stomach walls
Food mixes with gastric juice in the stomach, the only place gastric juice should ever be in the body unless there is gastric reflux or perforation of the stomach.
Glands on the stomach walls secrete gastric juice containing Pepsin (a type of protease), which breaks down proteins into smaller molecules called peptides.
Gastric acid is part of the "juices" produced by the stomach.
chyme is the mixture of gastric juice and the food intake. gastric juice is released by the hormone gastrin into the stomach.
There are HCl located within your stomach that forms the gastric juice.
Yes it is. The proper name for it is Gastric Acid.
Gastric juice, as known is an acidic juice present in the stomach. Pepsinogen in gastric juice conveys it to convert the pieces of food into a thick paste which then continues on. ^_^
Entry of food into the stomach and distension of the stomach
