Q

organ structure stomach exaple

A

stomach
1. epithelial : inner surface (secretion) = lines the stomach and secretes gastric acid + digestive enzymes
2. connective : outside of stomach and maintains structure and organ’s specific arrangement so it stays where it should be
3. muscle : contractions+digestion = mobility and churn food
4. nervous : communication = brain –> stomach for gastric acid production
