Q3) What is the Ph level of our mouth?
Ans) The Ph level in our mouth is around 6.75 to 7.25.
Q4) What is the function of HCl, Mucus, and Gastric Juice secreted in Stomach?
Ans) HCl is used to digest the proteins with the help of gastric Juice in the bolus.
Mucus protects the kining of stomach which can be damaged by the action of gastric juices.
Gastric Juice secrets a important component like inactivated pepsin which is activated by the action of HCl and therefore leds to digestion of proteins from the food material.

Pepsin us an enzyme that breks down protein into smaller peptdes (that is peptease)
Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down dietary fats into smaller molecules called fatt acids and glycerol.
5.what is the function of H.C.L
H.C.L kills the germs.
