उत्तर

The inner lining of stomach is protected by one of the following from the harmful effect of hydrochloric acid. This is mucus.

Explanation:

Mucus secreted by gastric glands coats the stomach’s inner lining, forming a protective barrier that prevents hydrochloric acid (and pepsin) from damaging the tissue; absence of this mucus can lead to erosion and ulcers.
