Muscularis Layer

Muscular Tissue: helps mix stomach contents and force them to the lower intestine.

Serosa

Areolar Connective Tissue

Simple Sqamous Epithelial Tissues

Submucosa Layer

Nerve Tissues: controls the contents of the stomach, smooth muscle contractions, and secretion of digestive fluids.

Interneurons

Motor Neurons

Sensory Neurons

Connective Tissues: helps support the mucosa and connects it to the muscularis layer.

Fibroblast Cells

Mucosa Layer

Muscularis Mucosa (Smooth Muscle Tissue): Allows the Mucosa to fold and increase its contact with the stomach contents.

Muscle Cells

Columnar Epithelial Tissue: helps protect the stomach from stomach acid. Also, it secretes enzymes, digestive fluid, and acid.

G Cells

Chief Cells

Parietal Cells
