between the circular and longitudinal muscle layers
Submucosal (meissner's) plexus has mainly sensory functions, whereas the myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus has mainly motor functions.
what is the myenteric plexus
Decrease intestinal motility
The myenteric plexus (Auerbach plexus) and the submucosal plexus (Meissner plexus). Together, they are collectively known as the Intramural plexus.
myenteric plexus and submucous plexus
myenteric plexus
The nerve plexus that primarily regulates the motility within the GI tract is the enteric nervous system, which includes the myenteric plexus (Auerbach's plexus) and the submucous plexus (Meissner's plexus). These plexuses coordinate the contractions of smooth muscle in the gut, controlling movements such as peristalsis and segmentation.
The two primary nerve plexuses regulating digestive function are the myenteric plexus (Auerbach's plexus) and the submucosal plexus (Meissner's plexus). They are part of the enteric nervous system and play important roles in controlling gastrointestinal motility, secretion, and blood flow.
The submucosal plexus (Meissner's plexus) is a network of nerve fibers found in the submucosa of the gastrointestinal tract that helps regulate glandular secretion and local blood flow. The myenteric plexus (Auerbach's plexus) is located between the circular and longitudinal muscle layers of the gastrointestinal tract and is responsible for controlling gastrointestinal motility. Both plexuses are part of the enteric nervous system, often referred to as the "second brain" of the body.
in wall of GIT the muscularis layer is composed of longitudinal and circuler fibers and the myentric nerve which is the part of enteric nervoius system is present between the longitudinal and circuler fibers
Yes, the large myenteric nerve plexus lies between the cirular and lomgitudinal muscle layers of the muscularis externa. Enteric neurons of this plexus provide the major nerve supply to the GI tract walls and controls GI tract motility. (page 778of Marieb, A&P 3rd edition)
Solar plexus,... ... ... Yeah, thats about it.
