Question

An ulcerated stomach lining often repairs itself once the source of inflammation has been eliminated. How is this possible?

a.) The tissue lining the stomach is an epithelium and thus capable of repair and renewal.
b.) The parasympathetic innervation of the stomach wall stimulates constant repair and renewal.
c.) The mucosa consists of a particularly vascular epithelium that facilitates efficient repair and renewal.
d.) All of the listed responses are correct.

Answer 1

Answer 2

c.) The mucosa consists of a particularly vascular epithelium that facilitates efficient repair and renewal
