What does the walls of the stomach contain?
The walls of the stomach contain a thick layer of mucus. The stomach itself is filled with pepsin and Hydrochloric acid in order to digest food. The thick layer of mucus prevents these acids from digesting the wall of your stomach. Occasionally this mucus recedes and some of the acid can get in. When this occurs, it causes a Peptic Ulcer.
If you ingest nasal mucus does it stick to your stomach walls?
No. Mucus is broken down by the acid in your stomach. It therefore does not remain behind in the stomach and passes normally through the digestive track of the body.
Do the walls of the blood vessels and digestive tract contain striated muscle?
no this is smooth muscles
What does mucus do in the digestive system?
Mucus, secretedby special cells in the stomach, help protect it from gastric juices. If the mucus levels become low, the gastric juices begin to digest the stomach wall, which leads to an Ulcer.

How many layers of tissue from the walls of the digestive tract?
Four layers of tissue form the walls of the digestive tract. These layers are called mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa and adventitia.
Why digestive acid cannot digest stomach?
The inner lining of the stomach is coated in a thick layer of protective mucus that prevents powerful digestive acids and enzymes from damaging the organ. The stomach walls themselves are thick membranes that are similarly protective against corrosion.
Is your stomach lined with mucus?
Yes, your stomach is lined with mucus. The chemicals the stomach secretes (i.e., pepsin) are designed to digest protein. But your stomach walls are also made of protein! The mucus coats the lining of your stomach so the chemicals do not destroy the lining.
Does fungi have cell walls that contain chitin?
No, it is important to differentiate between plants and fungi. Plant cell walls contain a carbohydrate polymer called cellulose. Fungi cell walls contain a different type of carbohydrate polymer called chitin. Chitin is harder than cellulose.
What are the wave of muscle contractions that pushes food through the digestive system?
Smooth muscle in the walls of the digestive tract contract and form a movement called peristalsis.
The cell walls of most fungi contain a hard substance called?
Chitin
