Well your and my stomach is made up of a stomach lining, protecting the rest of the internal organs from the acid. This diagram might help you understand how the cells and how your stomach forms HCL. <span>HCL breaks down proteins in your </span>stomach<span> to prepare them for digestion (like the proteins in milk and meat) and kills bacteria that enter your </span>stomach. It converts the inactive enzyme <span>pepsinogen </span>into the active enzyme pepsin. If you need more information please feel free to ask!

The table shows the distance between the moon and
Lunna [17]

January 10. 360,048.

Explanation:

The Earth and the Moon are two space bodies that have each other as the closest to one another. Both of them have their own gravitational pull, with the one of the Earth being much greater, while the one of the Moon being weaker than it is expected for a body of its size. Nevertheless they influence each other with the gravitational pull, which is most noticeable on Earth.

The gravitational pull between these two space bodies is the greatest when they are the closest to each other, while it is the smallest when they are the furthest from each other. On January 10 the distance between Earth and the Moon is the smallest and it is 360,048 km, so the gravitational pull is the greatest on this date. On December 19 the distance between Earth and the Moon is the greatest and it is 406,276 km, so the gravitational pull is the smallest.
