Summary Introduction
To discuss:
How gastric activity is controlled; the regulatory mechanism of the cephalic, gastric and the intestinal phase.
Introduction:
Stomach is a muscular bag-like structure that lies in the upper abdominal cavity next to the diaphragm. The stomach is a J-shaped organ. The stomach is a major organ for the digestion process. It functions as a storage organ for food. The food is mechanically broken down into smaller particles, food is liquefied, chemical digestion of fat and proteins starts in the stomach.

Which of the following descriptions of the tissue layers contains innacurate information? A) The mucosa layer consits of a simple epithelium (responsible for absoprtion), a lamina proprioa (supports the epithelium) and muscularis mucosae (thats ivolved with peristalsis. B) The muscularis externa has 2 or 3 layers of smooth msulce and is involced with persistalsis C) The submucosa layer is a connective tissue layer that anchors the mucosa layer and contains many blood vessels, lyphatic vessels, and nerves D) The serosa layer is a connective tissue layer that tethers the alimnetary canal to the appropirate body cavitities.
