What is a asymmetrical fold in science?

Folds which maintain uniform layer thickness are classed as concentric folds; those which do not are called similar folds. Similar folds tend to display thinning of the limbs and thickening of the hinge zone. Concentric folds are caused by warping which results from deformation of the layers, whereas similar folds usually form by some form of dislocation between the layers (sliding), with extension and contraction of the thickness of rock layers differently in the limb and hinge zones. -118 Team!

What is an advantage of folds in the stomach and in the intestines?

In the stomach, the folds (rugae) are there so that the stomach can expand under the influence of parasympathetic stimulation and stretching by the ingestion of food. This process is known as accommodation. There are permanent rugae forming a trough to direct fluids towards the pyloric sphincter in the absence of the ingestion of solid food. In the small intestines, the folds (plicae circulares) are one of many ways that the body increases surface area to improve the digestion (at the brushborder) and absorption of nutrients. In the large intestines, the haustral folds slow the progress of feces to improve reabsorption of water and sodium.
