Esophagus
Food is digested by your stomach, which is a muscular organ. Food is transported from the mouth cavity to the stomach via the esophagus. A stratified squamous epithelium lines it.
Stomach
With its columnar epithelial cells, narrow lamina propria, and pink-staining muscularis mucosa, the mucosal layer is visible here. Some blood vessels can be detected in the loose connective tissue of the submucosa.
Colon
The colon’s job is to dehydrate and shape the remaining food into feces. It accomplishes this by gently collecting water and electrolytes as the waste is moved along by its muscle system. There are no villi and the tissue folds are less dramatic than in the small intestine. There are several goblet cells present, however they are not visible at this magnification.
