Asthma is characterized by the pathological changes in the submucosal glands, the increase of smooth muscle composition and hardening of the lamina reticularis; due to the recurrent inflammation and overproduction of mucus in the airways (Holgate & Sly, 2014).

Under the dissecting microscope, the details of the shell were asymmetrical and smooth. The foot of the snails secreted mucus as they move around the Petri dish. Based on the observation, we hypothesized that these garden snails will move upward if the Petri dish was vertical since it is easier for them to climb upward due to their slime in which lubricate their…

acidic. 6. (Stomach Lining - Vulture): This adaptation produces more mucus in the stomach lining. This makes it so the stomach is protected from the gastric acid. Without this you would be getting severe ulcers which is very bad for your health.
