Digestive System Tissue Identification Quiz

The correct tissue type found in the stomach is stomach tissue, which is responsible for secreting digestive enzymes and acids to break down food.

The correct tissue type is liver (hepatic lobule) as it refers to the specific structural unit of the liver.

The correct answer is liver as it is associated with the hepatic triad containing the branches of hepatic portal vein, proper hepatic artery, and bile ductule.

The correct answer identifies the tissue type as the tongue with the highlighted structure being a taste bud found on vallate papillae. The incorrect answers provide examples of other organs and structures within them that do not match the given description.

Salivary glands are responsible for producing saliva which aids in digestion by breaking down food particles.

The salivary gland is a type of exocrine gland that produces saliva to aid in digestion. It is not part of the nervous system, muscle tissue, or adipose tissue.

The esophagus is a tube-like structure connecting the throat to the stomach, and the structures indicated in the boxes are lumen, mucosa, submucosa, and muscularis externa, which are characteristic layers of the esophageal wall.

The correct answer is 'stomach' because the gastric pits are found in the stomach lining. This is where gastric glands secrete digestive enzymes and gastric acid to aid in the digestion of food. Small intestine, liver, and lung do not contain gastric pits.

The correct answer is a taste bud found on vallate papillae. Taste buds are sensory organs that are located on the papillae of the tongue and are responsible for detecting different tastes. Vallate papillae are the largest of the papillae and are located at the back of the tongue.
