What else can I help you with?
What pushes feces out of the anus?
Feces are pushed out of the anus through a process called peristalsis, which involves the contraction and relaxation of muscles in the intestines. This movement helps to propel the waste material towards the rectum and ultimately out of the body during a bowel movement.
Rotating filament present in some bacteria that pushes the cell forward?
Flagellum
What is the name of the process by which food material moves along the alimentary canal?
When we swallow, food is moved down into the stomach from the mouth. This is peristalsis, and it's a rhythmic contraction of smooth muscles. A link can be found below for more information.
What do you call the movement that pushes the food from the esophagus to the stomach?
Peristalsis is what its called. Im NT lying. its true.
What are the main action and reaction forces at work when a person does a push up?
Action: Force from muscles used to push against the floor.Reaction: Floor pushes body up.
What pushes the digestion?
Food is pushed along the alimentary canal by peristalsis, alternating waves of contraction and relaxation in the smooth muscles lining the canal.
Why can I only see my abs when I flex?
When you flex your abs, the muscles tighten and become more defined, making them more visible. This is because the contraction of the muscles pushes them closer to the surface of the skin, creating a more sculpted appearance.
The muscular action that propels food through the esopahgus is called?
Peristalsis is a symmetrical contraction of muscles which propagates in a wave down the muscular tube, more specifically the esophagus. In humans, peristalsis is found in the contraction of smooth muscles to propel contents through the digestive tract.In much of the gastrointestinal tract, smooth muscles contract in sequence to produce a peristaltic wave which forces a ball of food (called a bolus while in the esophagus and gastrointestinal tract and chyme in the stomach) along the gastrointestinal tract. Peristaltic movement is initiated by circular smooth muscles contracting behind the chewed material to prevent it from moving back into the mouth, followed by a contraction of longitudinal smooth muscles which pushes the digested food forward.
What is the main force for pushing air out of the lungs?
The main force for pushing air out of the lungs is the contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. During exhalation, these muscles relax, causing the volume of the thoracic cavity to decrease, which increases the pressure in the lungs, forcing air out.
How does man walk?
When we walk on the ground our foot pushes the ground backward, and in return, the ground pushes our foot forward. The forward reaction exerted by the ground pushes our foot forward. The forward reaction exerted by the ground on our foot makes us walk forward.
Where in your body don't have muscle?
Muscle(from Latin musculus, diminutive of mus"mouse"[1]) is a contractile tissue of animals and is derived from the mesodermal layer of embryonic germ cells. Muscle cells contain contractile filaments that move past each other and change the size of the cell. They are classified as skeletal, cardiac, or smooth muscles. Their function is to produce force and causemotion. Muscles can cause either locomotion of the organism itself or movement of internal organs. Cardiac and smooth muscle contraction occurs without conscious thought and is necessary for survival. Examples are the contraction of the heart and peristalsis which pushes food through the digestive system. Voluntary contraction of the skeletal muscles is used to move the body and can be finely controlled. Examples are movements of the eye, or gross movements like the quadriceps muscle of the thigh.There are two broad types of voluntary muscle fibers: slow twitch and fast twitch.You dont have muscles in your cheeks.
What makes blood come back through the veins?
Contraction of surrounding muscles pushes blood through the veins. That's the reason it is advisable to walk a little after being seated for long.
What keeps urine from leaking?
The ureter tubes move urine from the kidneys to the bladder using something known as peristalsis. Peristalsis is a rhythmic and smooth contraction of muscle tissue to create a "wave." A good way to think of it is like squeezing tooth paste from a tube. It is due to this contraction of the muscles that pushes urine forward that it does not spill back in to the ureters.
When you begin to walk forward what exerts the force allowing you to accelerate?
When you begin to walk forward, the force exerted by your leg muscles on the ground generates a reaction force that propels you forward. This force pushes against the ground, causing your body to accelerate in the direction you are walking.
How does your food get from your mouth to the throat?
The food is sort of squeezed down by the esophagus due to the contraction of smooth muscles present on the inner side of the esophagus and this contraction is actually a movement known as peristalsis. It is just like squeezing something inside a tube or a pipe.
What does the wheel of a steamboat do?
It pushes the boat forward.
What pushes food through the digestive food?
The peristalsis which is a wavelike muscle contraction
