Nerve Supply to the Alimentary Canal -

  • The intrinsic innervation supplied to the alimentary canal by the enteric nervous system can be divided into two plexus:

1. The myenteric plexus (plexus of Auerbach) lies in the muscularis layer of the alimentary canal and is responsible for motility, especially the rhythm and force of the contractions of the muscularis.

2. The submucosal plexus (plexus of Meissner) lies in the submucosal layer and is responsible for regulating digestive secretions and reacting to the presence of food.

 The submucosal plexus (plexus of Meissner) lies in the submucosal layer and is responsible for regulating digestive secretions and reacting to the presence of food. Hence, the correct answer is option c.
