Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 1RAC
Which layer of the digestive tract is in direct contact with the foodthat is consumed?
a. mucosa
b. muscularis
c. serosa
d. submucosa
Expert Solution & Answer
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Three types of glands are associated with the digestive tract. These are unicellular mucous glands present in the mucosa, multicellular glands present in the mucosa and submucosa, multicellular glands present outside the digestive tract.
Answer to Problem 1RAC
The correct answer is option (a) mucosa.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer:
Option (a) mucosa. The mucosa is the inner tunic of the digestive tract, and it surrounds the lumen of the digestive tract. Therefore, the mucosa is in direct contact with ingested substances. So, the correct answer is option (a).
Explanation for incorrect answer:
Option (b) muscularis. It is the middle tunic of the digestive tract and does not come in contact with the lumen. Hence, the given option is not correct.
Option (c) serosa. It is the external layer of the mucosa. It does not interact with food substances. Hence, the given option is not correct.
Option (d) submucosa. It is present next to the mucosa and does not connect with the lumen of the digestive tract. Hence, the given option is not correct.
Conclusion
The mucosa is the innermost tunic and in direct contact of ingested food. Hence, the correct answer is option (a) mucosa.

8. Transcription and Translation Practice: (Video 10-1 and 10-2)
A. Below is the sense strand of a DNA gene. Using the sense strand, create the antisense
DNA strand and label the 5' and 3' ends.
B. Use the antisense strand that you create in part A as a template to create the mRNA
transcript of the gene and label the 5' and 3' ends.
C. Translate the mRNA you produced in part B into the polypeptide sequence making sure
to follow all the rules of translation.

What is the structure and function of Eukaryotic cells, including their organelles? How are Eukaryotic cells different than Prokaryotic cells, in terms of evolution which form of the cell might have came first? How do Eukaryotic cells become malignant (cancerous)?
What are the roles of DNA and proteins inside of the cell? What are the building blocks or molecular components of the DNA and proteins? How are proteins produced within the cell? What connection is there between DNA, proteins, and the cell cycle? What is the relationship between DNA, proteins, and Cancer?
