What is gastric mucosa?
Correct Answer:
Mucosa that lines the stomach
Explanation:
The gastric mucosa is the mucous membrane that lines the interior of the stomach. It’s the innermost layer of the stomach wall and includes the surface epithelium, the lamina propria, and a thin muscularis mucosae. This lining contains glands that secrete mucus to protect the stomach and gastric juice (acid, enzymes) to aid digestion. It sits above the submucosa and beneath the muscular layers, making it distinct from the deeper muscle layer or the outer coverings. In short, it’s the lining of the stomach, not the muscle layers or outer membranes.
