Solution
The inner lining of the stomach is protected by mucus against HCL. The inside lining of the stomach is kept moist by mucus. Mucus aids in the smooth passage of food particles through the digestive tract. Food will not easily pass through the digestive system if mucus is not produced. The stomach lining will be damaged by HCL, and the digestive process will be disrupted.
