Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The name of the serous membrane that suspends the intestine to posterior body walls. Also, the name of the external layer that is formed by an extension of this membrane is to be determined.

Introduction:

The digestive tract is comprised of different layers of tissues such as:

  1. Mucosa
  2. Sub-mucosa
  3. Muscularis
  4. Serosa or Adventitia

Serosa forms the fourth layer and it has thin connective tissue as well as squamous epithelium. The serous membrane is the membrane that lines the body walls and organs of the abdominal cavity. The presence of these membranes reduces the friction and thereby allowing swift movement of organs.
