What else can I help you with?
Locate and describe the stomach and describe the inner surface of a fetal pig?
In a fetal pig, the stomach is located in the upper part of the abdomen, below the diaphragm and between the esophagus and the small intestine. The inner surface of the fetal pig's stomach is lined with mucous membrane, which is composed of rugae (folds) that help expand the stomach to accommodate food and aid in digestion.
What do you call the infoldings of the inner membrane of the mitochondria?
The infoldings of the inner membrane of the mitochondria are called cristae. These structures increase the surface area of the inner membrane, allowing for more space for chemical reactions involved in cellular respiration to take place.
What controls the movement in and out of the cell in plant cells?
cell membrane aka plasma membrane
What tissue is the lining of the stomach?
The innermost layer of the stomach is made of mucous membrane. The mucous membrane of the stomach contains simple columnar epithelium tissue, that has many exocrine cells.
What is the fatty membrane that hangs in the stomach?
omentum
What covers the stomach and the most of the intestines?
Peritoneum is the serous membrane that covers the lining of the stomach.
Which serous membrane lines the stomach?
visceral peritoneum
The mucosal membrane that lines the stomach is known as the?
ruga
What is the difference between cell surface membrane and plasma membrane?
The diffrence is that the cell membrane is just a barrier between the exterior enviroment and the interior of the cell, while the cell surface membrane exerts control over what enters/leaves the cell! :)
What protein that projects from the outer surface of the membrane is termed?
The protein that projects from the outer surface of the membrane is termed as an extrinsic or peripheral membrane protein. These proteins are not embedded within the lipid bilayer but instead are attached to the surface of the membrane.
What the membrane on the surface of the lungs is called the?
The [mucosal] Pleural membrane.
What are the folds of mucus in the stomach?
The folds of mucus in the stomach are known as rugae. These folds allow the stomach to expand when it fills with food and help increase the surface area for gastric secretions. Rugae are lined with a mucous membrane that protects the stomach wall from the acidic environment and aids in the initial stages of digestion. When the stomach empties, the folds flatten out, enabling the organ to return to its smaller size.
