Why do the cells lining the stomach divide more quickly than those in the liver?

The cells lining the stomach divide more quickly than those in the liver because the stomach is constantly exposed to acidic enzymes and mechanical stress from food digestion, which can damage the lining and require more frequent cell renewal. In contrast, the liver is not exposed to such harsh conditions and does not require as rapid cell turnover for its functions.
