Chapter 14, Problem 2MC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) is also known as the digestive tract. It is an organ system in which food is ingested and then digested in order to provide energy to the cells of the body. During this process, all the essential nutrients are absorbed and waste products are expelled or excreted out.

How does Jane's problem with Ulcerative Colitis differ from Crohn’s disease (another Inflammatory Bowel Disease)? A. The damage to Jane’s GI tract is localized to the large intestine (colon), whereas patients with Crohn’s disease may have any part of the GI tract affected in the form of “skip” lesions. B. A patient with Crohn’s disease is more likely to have bloody stool than Jane. C. The entire thickness of the Jane’s intestinal wall (mucosa, submucosa, smooth muscle, and serosa) may be affected, whereas only the mucosa is affected in patients with Crohn’s disease. D. Jane may benefit from using a nicotine patch or chewing nicotine gum, while evidence for a therapeutic benefit of nicotine in Crohn’s disease is more limited. E. Anti-inflammatory pharmaceuticals, such as steroids and immunomodulators, are used to treat Crohn’s disease but not Ulcerative Colitis.

Submucosa The submucosa in the GI tract it is made of connective tissue, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, glands, and the submucosal nerve plexus. 3.
