Explain why a person with “locked in syndrome” would be able to feel pain but not be able to react to it.

Locked-in syndrome is usually the result of a brain stem stroke that affects the pons or another injury to the same area of the brain. People with locked-in syndrome have little or no control over their motor movements, causing quadriplegia. They also cannot speak but remain cognitively intact.

between the two muscle layers is the myenteric or auerbach's plexus, which controls peristalsis. in the colon, the muscularis externa is much thicker because the feces are large and heavy, requiring more force to push along. the stomach has a third layer of muscularis externa: the inner oblique layer.
