Question
Chapter 22.2, Problem 11QC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between muscularis externa and mucosa in the esophagus and the tissues present in the alimentary canal.

The submucosa in the esophagus is unique because it has esophageal glands that secrete a lot of mucus. OC The mucosa layer in the stomach is unique because it contains complex gastric pits with chief cells (that produce enzymes), parietal cells (that secrete acid), and enteroendocrine cells (that secrete digestive hormones).
