23
Q

What innervates parietal peritoneum?

Somatic nerves.

24
Q

What innervates visceral peritoneum?

A

Autonomic nerves.

25
Q

Why does abdominal rigidity indicate peritonitis?

A

Increased fluid & WBC in peritoneal cavity -> swelling & irritation of peritoneum -> tensed abdominal muscles -> guarding/protective mechanism.
