Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Peristalsis is defined as the involuntary movement which involves contraction and relaxation of muscles present in the digestive tract originates from the esophagus.

In diarrheal condition  the Peristalsis movement does not take place properly as it is not a voluntary muscle movement so it can not be controlled consciously. it is important to digestion but, in case of diarrhea or constipation something goes haywire with peristalsis . this condition can also be defined as motility (hypermotility) disorder.

Explain how the epithelium in each of the following regions of the respiratory tract is adapted so its structure follows its fun
vovangra [49]

Explanation:

a. Nasal cavity: the epithelium in this zone is meant to provide a physical barrier to the invasion of microorganism or particles, it also secretes and remove mucus and foreign particles, these epithelial cells are also involved in the igE producing process (perpetuating allergic responses. <em>The nose is the first barrier to the air that enters our body, that's why the epithelial cells in this zone focus in filtering foreign particles. </em>

b. Bronchiole: epithelium is ciliated and no ciliated, it becomes cuboidal in smaller passages as it continues to branch. The no ciliated cells, also known as club cells are the ones that produce surfactant. <em>Since bronchioles are passages to direct the air to the alveoles epithelial cells in this zone have adapted to go from larger branches to smaller ones to reach the alveoli. </em>

c. Alveolus: it's composed of two types of cells, type one, that constitute the air-blood barrier and type two, cells that produce surfactant to reduce surface tension to keep the alveolus shape when breathing.<em> Since alveoli's function is to allows oxygen/carbon dioxide to move between bloodstream the epithelial cells in this organ evolved to cover this job.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! good luck!
