What other systems does the digestive system depend on?
All systems in the human body directly or indirectly depend on each other. However, the digestive system mainly relies on the circulatory system and the musculatory system. The circulatory system brings enzymes and oxygen to the digestive system. The musculatory system performs peristalsis, to move the food through the digestive system.
The movement of digested food from the digestive system to the circulating fluid is called?
The movement of digested food from the digestive system to the circulating fluid is called absorption. This process mainly occurs in the small intestine where nutrients are taken up into the bloodstream for distribution throughout the body.
What is another kind of organ system that you could expect to find in a starfish?
In addition to the water vascular system responsible for movement and feeding, you could expect to find a digestive system in a starfish. This system includes the stomach and digestive glands for processing food.
Muscular wave -like movement to transport food through the digestive system?
Peristalsis is the term used to describe the muscular wave-like movement that helps propel food through the digestive system. This process involves coordinated contractions and relaxations of muscles in the digestive tract, helping to facilitate the movement of food from the mouth to the stomach and eventually through the intestines. Peristalsis plays a crucial role in digestion and absorption of nutrients.
How does the nervous system interact with the digestive system to regulate functions and responses related to digestion and absorption?
The nervous system communicates with the digestive system through a network of nerves called the enteric nervous system. This communication helps regulate functions like the release of digestive enzymes, movement of food through the digestive tract, and absorption of nutrients. The nervous system also plays a role in triggering responses such as the feeling of hunger or fullness.
What effects the digestive system?
digestive is to digest but the digestive system is a system of digestion.
What does absorption of the digestive system mean?
It means that it involes the movement of nutrients through the wall of your digestive system into your blood. Absorption

Is elimanation part of the digestive system?
Elimination is one of the functions of the digestive system. The movement of undigested food in the form of feces is one of the functions of the excretory system.
What is the muscular movement that moves food through out the digestive system?
Peristalsis.
What is the waves of muscular movement that pushes food through the digestive system?
Peristalsis is the term for the waves of muscular movement that push food through the digestive system. Peristalsis is accomplished through the activity of smooth muscle.
What is the wave of the muscular movement that pushes food through the digestive system?
Peristalsis is the term for the waves of muscular movement that push food through the digestive system. Peristalsis is accomplished through the activity of smooth muscle.
Do muscles move food through the digestive system?
Yes, by peristaltic movement.
What is the squeezing movement called that pushes food through the digestive system?
peristalsis
Do clams have a complete or incomplete digestive tract?
They have complete digestive system.
What is the process that involves the movement of nutrients through the wall of your digestive system into your blood?
This is called absorption.
