This document discusses several topics related to the digestive system:
1. It describes the spatial and temporal variations in microbial composition throughout the gastrointestinal tract and over time.
2. It outlines two opposing models of how taste qualities are encoded in the peripheral nervous system - the labelled-line model and the across-fibre pattern model.
3. It provides an overview of the histological organization of the digestive tube, including descriptions of cells in the digestive tract like enterocytes.
2. Spatial and temporal aspects of intestinal microbiota composition.
A: variations in microbial numbers and composition across the length of the gastrointestinal tract.
B: longitudinal variations in microbial composition in the intestine.
C: temporal aspects of microbiota establishment and maintenance and factors influencing
microbial composition.
