When we eat food how powerful is the acid in our stomach, is it powerful enough to kill a life? For example, if someone ate goldfish or shrimp alive. How does it work, do the acid kill them immediately or they die slowly.
In: Biology
other people have answered the actual question but one thing I find interesting is that different animals have different strengths of stomach acid, which is one of the reasons they can eat nastier food than us. for example, vultures have very strong stomach acid that can kill pathogens that if ingested would make other animals (including humans) sick, so they’re a very important part of keeping an ecosystem safe.
