In human beings, gravity.
The answer is yes as we do not have to think about digestion its an occurrence that we do not need to think about from the oesophagus (Gullet) to the Anus peristalsis occurs all the way until we pass motion aka (take a crap)
gravity affect every thing in its area ..but digestive system i think does not depend on the gravity if does then no body will face a problem ,it depends on the enzymes and valves open in one direction also time is ana important parameter
Actually, the esophagus works completely independently of gravity. The esophagus squeezes food down it using a movement called peristalsis. Peristalsis works in any direction and does not rely on gravity to work. This is why you can swallow upside down or in outer space!
Smooth muscle contractions continuously guide food down the alimentary canal, a process called peristalsis. Contrary to common thought, food does not move through you due to gravity (which is why you can swallow and digest food upside down). Therefore, gravity does not have much of an effect on digestion.
Q: What force moves food through the digestive process?
A: Peristalsis is a series of wave-like muscle contractions that move food through the digestive tract.
no because our digestive system does all of the work not gravity
no it dosent
The digestive system has smooth muscle through out it, and they help move the food.
Muscle motion in your digestive system called Peristalsis helps the food to travel through your digestive system.
Digestive
MUSCULAR
The digestive system prepares food for the bloodstream. The digestive system absorbs food particles and nutrients pass through this system to the bloodstream.
That is the organ system: digestive system.
Basically,to process food through your system
taking food and distrubute vitamines through out your body
it is where you digest the food you ingest through your digestive system the nutrients from the food.
