Generally the hand will lift a glass of water to the lips and tilt it back. When this happens the water goes into the mouth. After the proper amount of water is placed with in the mouth the lips will close and then something happens that I like to call "swallowing". This is when the muscles in the throat carry the water down into stomach. From here the body will absorb what it needs to rehydrate itself.
