North Korea has long complained about U.S.-South Korean military exercises â and not entirely without reason. (Ask a Georgian how Russiaâs Kavkaz-2008 exercise ended.) As the Clinton administration neared a nuclear deal with North Korea, it suspended the old, annual Team Spirit exercise that so irritated North Korea.
The stomach's main function is digestion. It does this by: The stomach uses pepsin (enzyme) and peptidase (another enzyme) to break down proteins in your food. The acid released by the stomach doesn't break down food it only provides a good environment for the enzymes to work in.
The functions of the stomach are to (1) store food, (2) to initiate protein digestion, (3) to kill bacteria with gastric juice and (4) to move chyme into the duodenum. Very little nutrient absorption occurs in the stomach because this isn't really a gastric function.he stomach is actually a precursor to the bloodstream. Nutrients are are broken down in the stomach, most are then sent to the intestines to be broken down further, and absor â¦ bed into the bloodstream and lymphatic systems.
