Detailed explanation-1: -The correct arrangement of the wall of the GI tract tissues from the outermost to innermost layers is C. serosa, muscularis, submucosa, mucosa.
Detailed explanation-2: -The inner surface of the small intestine is covered with a simple columnar epithelium exhibiting invaginations, known as the crypts of Lieberkuhn, which are comprised predominantly of proliferating cells, and finger-like projections called villi that contain the majority of differentiated absorptive cells [2, 6, 19].
Detailed explanation-3: -The stomach and intestines have a thin simple columnar epithelial layer for secretion and absorption. The submucosa is a thick layer of loose connective tissue that surrounds the mucosa. This layer also contains blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves. Glands may be embedded in this layer.
