Digestive 1 Flashcards
Tunica mucosa of most organs of the digestive tract consists of: Lamina epithelialis,
Lamina propria as loose collagenous CT and Lamina muscularis mucosae as thin smooth
muscle layers
t
Smooth muscles are typical muscle tissues for Radix linguae
f
Radix linguae contains many lymphoid nodules as well as mucous Weber´s glands
t
Radix linguae contains predominantly the filiform and fungiform papillae
f
Dorsum linguae contains all layers like the rest of digestive tract, including Tunica serosa
f
Papillae filiformes are the most numerous structures of Dorsum linguae and do NOT
contain any taste buds
t
Papillae of dorsum linguae are formed by stratified squamous epithelium and loose
collagenous CT
t
Papillae (circum-)vallate are numerous and scattered among papillae filiformes in Dorsum
linguae
f
Papillae circumvallatae contain taste buds within the epithelial lining stratified squamous
t
Papilae circumvallatae are lined by stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium and are
in close connection with ducts of von Ebners serous glands
t
Type I and II cells of taste buds have special vesicles in their cytoplasm responsible for
taste perception
f
Middle third of Oesophagus contains both striated and smooth muscles and is covered by
stratified squamous epithelium
t
The oesophageal submucosa contains purely serous glands
f
The oesophagus contains only one type of muscle tissue in its wall along the entire length
f
The epithelium of oesophageal mucosa is stratified squamous nonkeratinized
t
The epithelium of oesophageal mucosa is a layered squamous non-horned
t
Fundic glands are similar to the glands of the stomach body – they are made up of 5 types
of cells
t
Gland in the body of stomach are made up predominantly of mucous cells
