   		absorb water
   		release hydrochloric acid
   		produce bile
   		secrete pancreatic juice

The function of the large intestine is to:

		reabsorb water
		store bile
		release hydrochloric acid
		secrete pancreatic juice

The cells lining the stomach are normally protected from acid erosion because of the presence of:

		enzymes
		mucus
		saliva
		antibodies

Answer 1

The function of stomach cells is to release hydrochloric acid.

• Absorbing wateris done in small intestine
• Bile is been production by liver and stored in gall bladder.
• Pancreatic juice is secreted by pancreas.

The function of large intestine is reabsorb water.

​​​​The cells lining the stomach are normally protected from acid erosion because of the presence of mucus.

• Enzymes are proteins which speed up the rate of specific chemical reaction in the cell.
• Saliva is water. 98% water and important substance including electrolyte, mucus, antibacterial compounds and varies enzymes.
• Antibodies :- y shape protein which bints like a lock and key to the bodies foreign invaders whether they are virus, bacteria, fungi and parasites. They are the search battalion of immune system's search and distroy system, tasked with finding an enemy and marking it for distraction.
