The next layer after the mucosa is called the submucosa. This layer is a thick layer of loose connective tissue. Although this layer does not have any sub-layers, it does have blood vessels, vessels belonging to the lymphatic system, and nerves, some of which control digestion.In some places, such as the small intestine, the submucosa also contains cells that secrete mucus onto the surface of the tract.After the submucosa is a layer called the muscularis externa. Except for the upper portion of the esophagus, this layer consists of smooth muscle.n some places, such as the small intestine, the submucosa also contains cells that secrete mucus onto the surface of the tract.

The lymphatic system is composed of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and organs. The functions of this system include the absorbtion of excess fluid and its return to the blood stream, absorption of fat (in the villi of the small intestine) and the immune system function. Lymph vessels are closely associated with the circulatory system vessels. Larger lymph vessels are similar to veins.
