The functions of the stomach include

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The stomach functions include the digestion of protein molecules (not complete digestion), dissolving a small amount of food, killing harmful bacteria that may be present in the food and storing partially digested food until it can be released into the small intestine for further digestion and absorption. Therefore, both option C and D are not wholly correct on its own. B is incorrect as the stomach doesn't dissolve all the food that enters it. Hence, option E, which includes killing bacteria and storing partially digested food, is the best choice.
