Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The importance of gastric folds, surface mucous cells, mucous neck cells, chief cells, parietal cells, and G cells in the stomach.
Introduction:
With a few alterations, the digestive tract's other fundamental layers make up the stomach wall. Parietal cells, chief cells, and mucous neck cells are three different kinds of exocrine gland cells found in the gastric glands that discharge their contents into the stomach lumen.
