accessory organs
layers of digestive system (4)
Mucosa

Serosa
- inner most layer
- Consists of three layers: Mucosal epithelium, Lamina propria, Muscularis mucosa
mucosa
3 layers of mucosa
Mucosal epithelium, Lamina propria, Muscularis mucosa
layer of mucosa that involves Blood vessels, sensory nerves, lymph vessels, M.A.L.T.
lamina propria
layer of mucosa that involves Smooth muscle and elastic fibers
- has two layers within its makeup
muscularis mucosa
two layer of the muscularis mucosa found within the mucosa layer
circular and longitudinal
have folds to increase SA and have glands which secrete mucous and digestive enzymes
mucosa
function of mucosa
protection and absorption and secretion
layer of digestive tract that is made up of loose CT, glands, BV, lymph vessels & nerves
submucosa
function of submucosa
- nourish surrounding tissues
- carry away absorbed materials
layer of digestive tract that is made of layers of visceral smooth muscle
muscularis
layer of muscularis mucosa that decreases the diameter when contracted
circular
layer of muscularis mucosa that shortens tube when contracted
longitudinal
also known as viseral peritoneum that does not exist superior to the diaphragm.
- made of epithelium and CT
serosa
what type of tissue layer exists above the diaphragm
adventitia– in espohagus
function of the serosa
protection and secrete serous fluid
A series of membranes in the abdominal cavity - Visceral - parietal Are continuous with one another and seperated by Peritoneal cavity
peritoneium

visceral peritoneum
membrane of peritoneum that adheres to the abdominal wall
parietal peritoneum
Sheets of peritoneum connected to organs. provides access route for vessels and nerves
and stabilize position
