उत्तर
Gastric cells in the stomach secrete enzymes, hydrochloric acid, and a protective layer of thick, slippery mucus. This mucus barrier protects the delicate stomach lining from bacterial infections, enzymatic digestion, and acid damage. Without this crucial secretion, the gastric lining would erode, triggering chronic acidity and painful stomach ulcers.
