How do fat and protein film lining the inner wall of the aveoli do in your reapiratory system?
Pulmonary surfactant is a surface active material composed of lipids and proteins which is found in the fluid lining the alveoli.
Surfactant prevents alveolar collapse. In addition, it is involved in the protection of the lungs from injuries and infections caused by inhaled particles and micro-organisms.

How does digestive system avoid digesting itself?
The digestive system protects itself from digestion through several mechanisms. It produces mucus that forms a protective barrier on the lining of the stomach and intestines. Additionally, cells in the digestive system have specialized proteins that help in recognizing and targeting harmful substances while leaving the healthy tissues unharmed. There is also a balance of digestive enzymes and inhibitors that regulate the digestive process to prevent self-digestion.
Which layer of embryonic tissue forms the lining of the digestive tract?
The endoderm layer of embryonic tissue forms the lining of the digestive tract. It gives rise to the epithelial cells that make up the inner lining of the gastrointestinal system.
Epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal tract is called what?
The epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal tract is called the mucosa. It is composed of specialized cells that help with absorption, secretion, and protection within the digestive system.
What is the lining of the digestive system called?
The lining of the entire digestive tract is called the mucosa. It makes what we call mucous.
What are three structures that are derived from each of the primary germ layers?
