Function of Stomach -

  • It acts as a temporary storage organ. Because of this, the frequency of eating is reduced.
  • Digestive function is because of pepsin enzyme. It is a proteolytic enzyme.
  • The movements of the stomach convert solid food into a fluid paste called chyme and deliver this in small quantities to the duodenum for proper digestion in the small intestine.
  • A protective function is because of the high acidic medium due to the presence of HCl, many of the micro­organisms die. Thereby it protects the GI tract from getting invaded by the microorganisms.
  • The hematopoietic function is because of the intrinsic factor which is secreted by gastric glands. Intrinsic factor is essential for the absorption of vitamin B12 in the ileum region.
  • The absorptive function is also one of the functions of the stomach. Some amount of water and alcohol is absorbed in the stomach region.
