Why doesnât gastric juice digest the inside of the stomach?

Biology
1 answer:
arlik [135]3 years ago
8 0
The inside of a stomach is coated with a lining that protects it.
This lining is made up of cells called epithelial cells. They coat the stomach with a mucus that neutralizes the acid.

The mucus contains bi-carbonate (a base), similar to baking soda.
Acid + Base = water and salt
So, that’s why taking tums or swallowing baking soda water helps an upset stomach.

When your stomach is upset, it means there’s too much acid. Taking a tums neutralizes that overproduction eating also helps to absorb the excess acid.

HHow do you some cells become brain cells and others become skin cells when the DNA and all the cells is exactly the same in oth
Bezzdna [24]

Explanation:

In the early days of development, in an embryo, the cells are pluripotent and can differentiate into any kind of cell of the organism. As the embryo develops, autocrine and paracrine signaling between the cells of the embryo causes the cells to migrate to particular regions of the embryo and begin differentiating into respective parts of the organism. This signaling causes differential silencing of particular genes of the cells depending on the type of cells they will differentiate into. As the embryo develops into a fully grown organism, these cells lose potency (except for stem cells) and become fully differentiated into respective limbs or organs of the organism.

A postitivly charged atom has? A.Lost electrons B. Lost protons C.Gained electrons D.Gained protons
Kipish [7]

Not to be too picky, but the question ought to say a positively charge ion rather than atom.

I will assume that is what you mean. An ion, using ordinary means, will be positive if it loses electrons (which are negative).

An ion can never gain protons. Left alone, the nucleus will remain unchanged for the rest of eternity. D is wrong.

C is wrong. If electrons are gained, the ion will go negative.

B is wrong for the same reason D is. An ion can't gain protons and it can't lose them.

A is the answer.
