tubular
yes
The medical term for circular muscle found in tubular structures that regulates the passage of substances is "sphincter." Sphincters act as valves to control the flow of fluids or materials through tubular structures in the body.
From the esophagus to the anus, the digestive is basically a tube very similar to other tubular organs in the body. All such tubular organs are composed of several tissue layers arranged around a lumen. In a "generic" tubular organ, these layers are as follows (from the lumen to the ablumenal layer).
endoplasmic reticulum
The grasshopper has an open circulatory system which consists of 7 tubular hearts, which are actually valved chambers. These chambers circulate haemolymph, which is the body fluid in a grasshopper's body cavities and appendages.
Peristalsis is the rhythmic movement of the hollow digestive tract.

A sabella is a variety of seaworm, around 10 inches long, which resides in self-built tubular structures.
Yes, sweat glands are made of modified epithelial tissue. They are formed by invaginations of the epidermis (outer layer of the skin) and consist of coiled tubular structures. These tubular structures are lined with specialized sweat gland epithelial cells that secrete sweat.

Really only one thing is similar; both are tubular parts of the digestive system.
