Main digestive function occurring in the stomach?

The main digestive function occurring in the stomach happens when the muscles churn the food into a consistency that is easier to digest for the rest of your intestines. The stomach releases acids and enzymes for the chemical breakdown of food. Pepsin is responsible for protein breakdown.


Molecules which serve as chemicals to make reaction work- like the breakdown of food molecules?

They are called enzymes. They aren't necessarily considered molecules, but I suppose they are, perhaps very large ones. These enzymes act as a catalyst to speed the decompositions along. Stomach acid helps by oxidising the food as well as creating the environment for the proteins to function.
