These little bumps that you see over here are intestinal folds called the plicae circulares. On top of those folds are finger-like projections called villi and on top of the villi are more finger-like projections called microvilli.

Under normal homeostatic circumstances, new cells that are formed at the basal area of the intestinal folds and during cell differentiation cells migrate to the apex area where they are shred off during the process of apoptosis [2]. The interplay between cellular proliferation, differentiation and regulated cell death...

In a puppy, the entire intestinal lining, from the tip of the villi to the depths of the intestinal folds divides rapidly, with almost a total turnover of cells in 3 to 5 days. The myocardium has rapidly dividing cells that are sometimes affected in very young puppies (usually less than 9 weeks of age or so).
