Which are tunics (layers) that make up the gastrointestinal wall?

Biology
1 answer:
AlekseyPX2 years ago
3 0

The gastrointestinal wall is composed of four layers or tunics:

  • Mucosa
  • Submucosa
  • Muscularis mucosa
  • Serosa

The innermost tunic of the wall is known as the mucosa or mucous membrane layer. The digestive tract's lumen is lined with it. The mucosa comprises epithelium, a layer of lamina propria, a loose layer of connective tissue, and the muscularis mucosa, a thin layer of smooth muscle.

The mucosa is surrounded by a substantial layer of loose connective tissue known as the submucosa. Blood arteries, lymphatic vessels, and neurons are also present in this stratum. The adventitia is a connective tissue that makes up the digestive tract's outermost layer above the diaphragm. It is referred to as serosa below the diaphragm.

The interaction between DNA and histone proteins (forming nucleosomes) plays a key role in the regulation of gene expression in
ladessa [460]

Answer:

A. The chromatin near cis-regulatory sequences will be more closed and there will be less transcription.

Explanation:

In the presence of histones, the cis-regulatory sequences of DNA like promoter, enhancers etc. are not exposed. The function of the histone acetyltransferases (HATS) is to cause chromosome decondensation i.e. removal of histones from the DNA so that transcription of the DNA could occur. Histone acetyltransferases (HATS) cause acetylation of lysine amino acid of the histone proteins. Acetyl group is negatively charged so the acetylation of histone proteins leads to the removal of their positive charge which ultimately leads to the decrease in the interaction between N terminal of histones and negatively charged phosphate group of the DNA molecule. As soon as histones are removed from the DNA where cis-regulatory sequences are located, the DNA becomes accessible for transcription.

But here a drug has been added which blocks the activity of histone acetyltransferases (HATS) in cancer cells. So it is quite evident that in these cells, histones will not get removed from the cis-regulatory sequences of DNA so the DNA will be more closer or tightly packed as a result of which  less transcription will occur.

Anton [14]

Answer:

Put the cut portion in vertical upward position and cover it with clean tissue or cloth.

Explanation:

At first to minimize the bleeding from wrist we need to raise the wrist up and then apply pressure by clean tissue or cloth. Wrap the tissue/clothe around the wrist. If blood is soaking through the material wrapped, don't remove the wrap but pot more tissues/cloths around the wrap and continue to apply the pressure. The hand should be kept raised at a level more than the level of heart of that injured person. Due to continuous pressure of the wrapping material the bleeding will stop in around 5-8 minutes.
