The Stomach: The stomach is an important organ in the digestive system that digests food and moves it into the small intestine. It has muscular walls as well as many folds and wrinkles called rugae as part of its inner layer. Answer and Explanation:1 ...
The mucus in the stomach protects the lining from acids used for chemical digestion. It is a moist membrane layer consisting mainly of simple columnar epithelium, a single layer of epithelial cells that are taller than they are wide. These cells produce secretions needed for food digestion...
The inner surface of the stomach contains the gastric mucosa, which is a mucous membrane layer. The mucosa secretes 1.2–1.5 L gastric juice per day, which contains water, hydrochloric acid, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate, sulfate, and bicarbonate), mucus, enzymes (lipase...
