Define material property using analytical functions

$

Hi, everyone,
As we know, Comsol allows using analytical functions of spatial coordinates to represent variable material properties on the domain of interest. I am wondering if the material property value of each mesh element is still variable, or just some constant in the finite element formula, when running a solver?
For example, we define a Young's modulus E = a*x + b over a domain, where x is the spatial coordinate. How Comsol will tackle the Young's modulus of each element when doing calculation? Is it some constant or some interpolation functions?
Does anyone know that? thanks a lot.
