ALIMENTARY CANAL OF BIMANA. 4 stomach averages from thirteen to fifteen inches; its widestdiameter five inches; its capacity five pints. It extends almosttransversely across the upper (in Man) part of the abdomenfrom the left toward the right side, the pylorus entering theregion called ( right hypochondrium: as the stomach becomesdistended, it gently rotates the great curvature forward. Theouter or i serous coat is continued from the lesser curvatureand contributes with the end of the gullet and beginning ofthe gut to suspend or attach the bag: from the curve d,f, c, the serous coat extends down to form the f great omen-tum, fig. 388 ; thus provision is made for the digestive cavityto encroach upon the interspace of the two serous layers during. Muscular coat, Human stomach, inverted. cxLViii, expansion. The muscular coat of the stomach is in three layerswhich, from the general course of the fibres, are termed i lon-gitudinal, s transverse, and f oblique: the latter or innermostlayer, fig. 333, g, d, f, c, is partial: the other two are com-plete. The longitudinal layer, like that of the gullet, is theoutermost; and the fibres radiate from the cardia, becomingthinner as they diverge, spreading and decussating with the otherfibres, and hardly traceable continuously to the pylorus, savealong the lesser curvature. The transverse fibres, which lieimmediately beneath the longitudinal, form a thicker and moreuniform stratum: in the inverted stomach, from which themucous membrane has been dissected, in fig. 333, they are theinnermost at the pyloric end, c, e,b: at the cardiac end they arelined by the layer of 6 oblique fibres. The transverse layerincreases in thickness to the pylorus, fig. 334, the circular fibresor sphincter occupyi
