The digestive system is composed of various tissues including epithelial tissue lining the organs, smooth muscle tissue for peristalsis, connective tissue for supporting structures, and nerve tissue for sending signals for digestion and absorption.
Churns the food?
Yes, glandular tissues can produce enzymes. Glandular tissues are specialized to secrete various substances, including enzymes, that help in digestion, metabolism, and other physiological functions in the body. The enzymes produced by glandular tissues play important roles in breaking down food, regulating various biochemical processes, and supporting overall health.
A spider's digestive system works by first injecting digestive enzymes into its prey to break down the tissues. The spider then sucks up the liquefied nutrients through its mouthparts and into its gut for absorption. The nutrients are then distributed throughout the spider's body for energy and growth.
In a multicellular organism muscle cells make up smooth muscle tissue, then along with other tissues they make up the stomach or an organ. Therefore, the stomach is part of an organ system, the digestive system.
The CFTR protein helps regulate the flow of chloride ions in and out of cells, which is important for maintaining the balance of salt and water in various tissues, including the lungs and digestive system. Its proper function is crucial for normal respiratory and digestive processes in the body.

No, the digestive system is an organ system made up of organs, which in turn are made up of tissues.
Enterobacterial infections in the digestive tract typically start when the organisms invade the mucous tissues that line the digestive tract

In the digestive system, tissues and cells work together to break down food, absorb nutrients, and eliminate waste. Specialized epithelial cells line the digestive tract, facilitating absorption and secretion of digestive enzymes and acids. Smooth muscle tissues contract to propel food through the system, while connective tissues support and protect the organs involved in digestion. Overall, these components ensure efficient processing and utilization of nutrients from ingested food.
Yes. Your entire body is made of cells. Cells > tissues > organs > organ systems (such as digestive and skeletal).

Churns the food?
Well, if your body is alive, all organs and tissues are alive. However, separate from the body, the digestive system would not function. Therefore, it cannot be said that the digestive system is "alive" apart from its functioning within the body.
