diaphragm. Lying beneath the stomach is the pancreas‚ and the greater omentum hangs from the greater curvature. Like the other parts of the gastrointestinal system‚ the stomach walls are made of a number of layers. Starting inside the stomach (the lumen) going out‚ the first main layer is the mucosa.

small vesicles of smooth endoplasmic reticulum are cut off to carry the proteins to their new spots in the cell. It also stores ions in solution that the cell may need at a later time. The endoplasmic reticulum allows molecules to be moved between the lumen and the cytoplasm‚ and since it is connected to the double-layered nuclear envelope‚ it gives a route between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In muscle cells the endoplasmic reticulum releases calcium to trigger muscle contractions. The endoplasmic
