YOU NEED TO DO A DRAWING AND DO CALCULATIONS. DO NOT ANSWER THIS WITH A WRITTEN RESPOSE!!!!
A plan diagram is a simple drawing showing only the boundaries between the lumen, the columnar epithelium, the (areolar) connective tissue, the circular smooth muscle and the longitudinal smooth muscle. A plan diagram serves to illustrate the location and relative thickness of the various tissue layers.
1. Draw a plan diagram and label the following: • Longitudinal smooth muscle • Columnar epithelial tissue • Circular smooth muscle • Villi • Areolar connective tissue • Lumen
2. Calculate actual size and drawing magnification of the width of the intestine. Include formulae used and calculations.
3. Add a scale bar with actual size next to your diagram.
Give your drawing a descriptive title and record total magnification.
Attached are an example plan diagram labelled, as well as a…
The smooth muscle cells are arranged in two different ways in intestinal wall. Explain the significance of two different arrangements of smooth muscle cells in intestinal wall i.e. how these arrangements relate to the function.

He was diagnosed as having cholera, a disease transmitted through unsanitary water supplies contaminated by fecal material from infected indiv iduals. The toxin produced by cholera bacteria causes Cl- channels in the lurninal membranes of the intestinal cells to stay open, thereby increasing the secretion of Cl- from the cells into the intestinal tract lumen. By what mechanisms would Na+ and water be secreted into the lumen in conjunction with Cl- secretion? How does this secretory response account for the severe diarrhea that is characteristic of cholera?arrow_forwardTwo students are designing 3D cell models for animal cells.what organelles will the student need in order to build an accurate representation of an animal cell?arrow_forward
