Smooth muscle, not striated like the skeletal muscles such as the bicep.
The type of muscle that lines the digestive tract is called smooth muscle. Smooth muscle is involuntary, meaning it operates without conscious control, and is responsible for the rhythmic contractions known as peristalsis, which moves food through the digestive system. This muscle type is also found in other hollow organs, such as blood vessels and the bladder.
Smooth muscle is responsible for peristalsis along the digestive tract. It is involuntary and helps to move food through the digestive system by contracting and relaxing in a coordinated manner.
