Bolus goes down esophagus, through lower esophageal sphincter (aka, cardiac sphincter) and into stomach. (A sphincter is a circular muscle which squeezes shut or opens the tubular digestive tract). It then passes through pyloric sphincter into small intestine. The small intestine is made up first of the duodenum, then jejunum, then ileum. From ileum, bolus goes to ascending colon, then transverse colon, then descending colon. From there to rectum and then out through anus (anal sphincter) .
The bolus is not an organ or anything in your digestive system. its a term for the ball of food that accumulates in your mouth so it can be moved down the esophagus
A bolus is formed in the mouth and travels through the whole digestive system of a human.
It Is used to carry the bolus of food from the mouth to the stomach.
That makes no sense...what about it???ther is noo answer
pharynx is an integral part of our digestive sytem.it allows the bolus of food we ingest to be swallowed and thus moved to the stomach for further processing.

Peristalsis is the process by which smooth muscle moves a mass of food (called the food bolus) through the digestive system. There is circular smooth muscle and longitudinal smooth muscle in the digestive tract. Contraction of circluar smooth muscle keeps the food bolus from moving "backward" along the digestive tract by decreasing the diameter of the tract behind the bolus. Contraction of the longitudinal muscle in the digestive tract propels the food bolus "forward" in the digestive tract.
It is part of the digestive system for the small and large intestines do their part in digesting all the food we eat. The small intestines takes the nutrients out of our food and puts it into our blood stream and the large intestines (colon) takes the moisture out of the digested food (bolus) for excretion.
The muscle action that mixes chyme with digestive juices throughout the digestive system is called Peristalsis. Peristalsis are wave-like of contractions and expansions of muscles. The muscles help to move the bolus (food) through the digestive tract. Peristalsis are located all over the digestive tract.
The term is peristalsis. This refers to smooth muscle tissue contracting rhythmically to move food (bolus) through the intestines.
