Answer Key / Explanation : (c) -

(c)

The wall of alimentary canal is made up of four basic layers. First of all, there is serosa, which is a thin membranous covering around oesophagus. Then, there is muscle layer-outer layer of longitudinal muscles and inner layer of circular muscles. Last, there is submucosa, which contains a few oesophageal glands. Then comes mucosa, which has several layers of flattened cells.
