What else can I help you with?
The two muscles which contract to seal off food while it is churning in the stomach during the digestive process are called?
The two muscles are the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and the pyloric sphincter. The LES prevents food from going back up into the esophagus, while the pyloric sphincter controls the flow of partly digested food from the stomach into the small intestine.
Do you defibrillate asystole during cardiac arrest"?
No, defibrillation is not effective for treating asystole during cardiac arrest.
What is the correct order of food movement down the gi tract?
The following lists the tubing in the correct order of food movement are oropharynx, laryngopharynx, esophagus, stomach, and pyloric valve. The regular contractions of the muscularis that push food through the entire gastrointestinal tract are known as peristalsis.
What valve opens during systole?
The aortic valve opens during systole to allow blood to be pumped from the left ventricle into the aorta. This process is part of the cardiac cycle that ensures blood is effectively circulated throughout the body.
Where is the anal sphincter located?
Sphincters are muscular valves found throughout the body used to open or close an opening. An example is the cardiac sphincter which prevents food from coming back up the esophagus after swallowing
During what process does the cardiac sphincter open involuntary?
Peristalsis.

What sphincters are use during digestion?
I can think of 5 off the top of my head. Cardiac Sphincter at the top of the stomach. Pyloric Sphincter at the distal end of the stomach. Ileocecal Valve that separates the Small and Large intestines and the Internal and External Anal sphincters.
What can happen to the cardiac sphincter during indigestion?
one thing that can happen is that the muscle becomes weak and lets the acid through the muscle leading to the oesophagus. this happens because there's too much food in the stomach so it pushes out the acid.
Can the bladder be damaged or its sphincter during a pap smear?
A pap smear cannot damage the bladder or its sphincter. The speculum may put some temporary pressure against the bladder. The sphincter is not affected at all.
Do you defibrillate asystole during cardiac arrest"?
No, defibrillation is not effective for treating asystole during cardiac arrest.
What part of the heart fails to work during cardiac shock?
Cardiac muscle or heart muscle is the part of the heart that fails to work during cardiac shock.
What pushes food to the stomachs exit?
The gateway to your stomach is called the lower esophageal sphincter. This ring-like muscle opens and closes the passage between your esophagus and your stomach, as needed. During the digestive process, the sphincter relaxes and lets food pass into your stomach. Food goes through a significant part of the digestive process inside your stomach.
Is the epiglottis the first GI tract sphincter?
No, the epiglottis is not considered a sphincter of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It is a flap of tissue that covers the trachea during swallowing to prevent food and liquids from entering the airway. The first true sphincter in the GI tract is the lower esophageal sphincter, which regulates the passage of food from the esophagus into the stomach.
Why does cardiac muscles does not stop during life?
cardiac means heart and if your heart stops you die
Does dilatation of pupil occur in cardiac arrest?
yes your pupils get dialted during cardiac arrest.
When do the AV valve close during the cardiac cycle?
AV valves close during the systole phase of the cardiac cycle.
