In the esophagus.
Peristalsis. The process of peristalsis begins in the esophagus when a bolus of food is swallowed. The strong wave-like motions of the smooth muscle in the esophagus carry the food to the stomach, where it is churned into a liquid mixture called chyme.
the process is peristalsis
peristalsis plays a large role in moving food through the digestive tract
Our Oesophagus' use Peristalsis to squeeze food down into our stomach. That's all I can think of! !
The rhythmic muscular contractions of the digestive system are called peristalsis.
Yes, digestion starts in the mouth, before peristalsis takes place. The mouth breaks up food, and starts the chemical digestion of starches.
Peristalsis takes place in the oesophagus... It's a series of muscular contractions that pushes food down to the stomach.
Peristalis takes place in the gastrointestinal tract.
It occurs in the stomach, the esophagus and the intestines.
. Peristalsis does not occur in the...
Peristalsis is pendulum-like in the esophagus. This process helps to move food from the mouth to the stomach by contracting and relaxing the muscles in a coordinated wave-like motion.
The esophagus moves food via peristalsis, but no digestion occurs in the esophagus. It connects the mouth and stomach.
Mechanical digestion takes place in the mouth (chewing) and the stomach swishing stuff around (peristalsis) and more churning the small intestine (segmentation)
Peristalsis who ever asked this is an idiot just look it up on the internet or in a book
Peristalsis is the contractions and the relaxations made by the muscles of the body especially by the muscles of the alimentary canal. Peristalsis is important for the movement of food through the oesophagus (so that the food can reach the stomach) and the large intestine (for prevention of constipation). Peristaltic movement also takes place in the reproductive organs of the body.
