Wall of the gastrointestinal tract: Mucosa: the innermost layer of the GI wall the layer facing the lumen or open space of the tube is called the mucosa or mucous layer.

The mucosa is made of three layers an inner mucous epithelium, loose fibrous connective tissue called lamina propria and a thin layer of smooth muscle called muscularis mucosae.

Wall of the gastrointestinal tract: Submucosa: the layer of the digestive tube is composed of connective tissue that is thicker than the mucosal layer.

It contains numerous small glans, blood vessels and parasympathetic nerves that form the submucosal plexus (Meissner plexus).

Wall of the gastrointestinal tract: Muscularis or Muscular layer: is a thick layer of muscle tissue that wraps around the submucosa

This portion of the wall is characterized by an inner layer of circular and an outer layer of longitudinal smooth muscle. The muscularis contains nerves called the myenteric plexus. This plexus lies between the two muscle layers.

Wall of the gastrointestinal tract: Muscularis or Muscular layer: is a thick layer of muscle tissue that wraps around the submucosa

The term intramural plexus is used to describe both plexus (inner layer of circular and an outr layer of longitudinal smooth muscle). Together they comprise the enteric nervous sistem (ENS) and play an important role in movement and secretion.

Wall of the gastrointestinal tract: Serosa or serous layer is the outermost layer of the GI wall. It is made of serous membrane.

The serosa is the visceral layer of the peritoneum, the serous membrane that lines the abdominapelvic cavity and covers its organs.
