Caecum is small blind sac which hosts some symbiotic micro-organisms. From it a small finger like vestigial organ arises. This organ is called:
(1) Parotid gland
(2) Vermis
(3) Vermiform appendix
(4) Lacteals
Mucosa forms many small finger like villi in the:
(1) Stomach
(2) Colon
(3) Caecum
(4) Small intestine
The narrow distal part of stomach leading to the intestine is called:
(1) Cardiac
(2) Pyloric
(3) Fundus
(4) None of these
Duodenal glands / Brunner's glands are present in:
(1) Submucosa
(2) Mucosa
(3) Muscularis
(4) Serosa
Mucosa forms irregular folds (rugae) in the:
(1) Ileum
(2) Stomach
(3) Jejunum
(4) Colon
The wall of alimentary canal from oesophagus to rectum posses four layers. The sequence of these layers is:
(1) Serosa → Mucosa → Submucosa → Muscularis
(2) Muscularis → Serosa → Mucosa → Submucosa
(3) Serosa → Muscularis → Mucosa → Submucosa
(4) Serosa → Muscularis → Submucosa → Mucosa
The opening of stomach into duodenum is guarded by:
(1) Cardiac sphincter
(2) Sphincter of Boyden
(3) Sphincter of Oddi
(4) Pyloric sphincter
A muscular sphincter regulating opening of oesophagus into the stomach is called:
(1) Pyloric sphincter
(2) Cardiac Sphincter
(3) Sphincter of oddi
(4) Boyden sphincter
Which layer of the gut is responsible for peristalsis?
(1) Smooth muscles
(2) Mucosa
(3) Submucosa
(4) Serosa
Small intestine is distinguishable into 3 parts, a 'C' shaped ________ a long coiled middle portion _________ and a highly coiled:
(1) Ileum, jejunum, duodenum
(2) Duodenum, Jejunum, ilium
(3) Duodenum, jejunum, caecum
(4) Caecum, duodenum, ileum
