Answer Key / Explanation : (a) -

(a)

Hydrochloric acid present in the gastric juices, maintains a strong pH in stomach. But the wall of stomach is not digested with its action because goblet cells secretes, mucous which lubricates the innermost layer continuously in the stomach and intestine. The wall is also protected by the bicarbonates of pancreatic juices and Brunner’s gland
