Answer: The orientation of the muscles in the abdominal wall is important to enclose and protect abdominal contents.
Explanation: The anterolateral musculoaponeurotic walls are suspended between and supported by two bony rings; thoracic skeleton superiorly and pelvic girdle inferiorly, which are linked by a semirigid lumbar vertebral column in the posterior abdominal wall. This orientation enables the abdomen to enclose and protect abdominal contents while providing the flexibility required by posture, locomotion and respiration.

<em> A. </em><u><em>Trypsin </em></u><em>is an enzyme that is responsible for breaking the pethidic bonds of porters, and not carbohydrates.</em>
<em> B. Pancreatic </em><u><em>amylase </em></u><em>acts on carbohydrates, not fats.</em>
<em> C. </em><u><em>Lipase</em></u><em> in pancreatic juice acts on fats, not on sugars or carbohydrates.</em>
