The correct answer is muscularis externa.

The muscularis externa refers to a section of muscle in various organs in the vertebrate body, adjacent to the submucosa. It is accountable for the gut movement known as peristalsis.

In comparison to the majority of the remainder of the digestive tract, the muscularis externa of the upper section of the esophagus comprises of striated muscle. It is accountable for peristaltic movement and segmental contractions in the GI tract.

These muscles make the movement of food and churn in combination with the digestive enzymes down the GI tract. The muscularis externa comprises of a longitudinal outer muscular layer and an inner circular layer.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Explanation:

A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Does carbon dioxide enter a plant when the guard cells swell or when they shrink?

ElenaW [278]

Answer: When cells swell up

Explanation: Plants need carbon dioxide and stomata allow the plant to take in carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis. The "lips" are actually individual cells (called guard cells) that can swell up to open the stomata or deflate to close them off.
