Summary Introduction
To identify:
The type of fascicles arrangement in muscles guarding the anal opening between the large intestine and exterior.
Introduction:
The anal openings have concentric fascicles arrangement of muscles called as the circular muscles. Circular muscles have the fascicles arrangements that are concentric around the openings.
