Yes, so it can digest and churn food around.
Smooth muscle tissue constricts the lumen of the small intestine involuntarily. This muscle tissue is responsible for moving food and materials through the digestive tract by contracting and relaxing in a rhythmic pattern.
well the intestine itself is composed of smooth muscle. It is composed of epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and the glandular cells. The inner layer is of the epithelial tissue. This contains vilis and mucous for the digestion process. Does this help at all? Arnel
i dont know -_-
Muscle tissue is responsible for contraction in the body. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscle is attached to bones and helps with movement, cardiac muscle is found in the heart and helps pump blood, and smooth muscle is found in organs and blood vessels to help with various functions.
The cardiac muscles are present in your heart. The smooth muscle are present in your intestine and other many hollow tubes in your body. Both of them are involuntary type of muscles.
Smooth muscle tissue isn't divided into specific muscles like skeletal muscle tissue is, but these organs have smooth muscle in them: Stomach Small intestine Large intestine Iris (of the eye) Arrector pili (responsible for goosebumps) Ureters Bladder Parts of the esophagus Blood vessels Bronchi and bronchioles (the airways in the lungs) Uterus
skeletal muscle tissue,cardiac muscle tissue smooth muscle tissue
Muscle tissue is deep to epidermal tissue. Epidermal tissue is superficial to muscle tissue.
smooth muscle pushes food through the intestine and smooth muscle is a involuntary muscle
Cecum or Caecum? it's a tissue in the large intestine...
Smooth tissue refers to a type of tissue that lacks striation and is typically found in organs like blood vessels and the digestive tract. Muscle tissue encompasses three types: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Smooth tissue is a specific type of muscle tissue known as smooth muscle tissue.
