The valve that controls the movement of food between the stomach and small intestine is called the pyloric sphincter. It regulates the passage of partially digested food from the stomach into the small intestine for further digestion and absorption.
Pyloric sphincter controls the movement of food from stomach to duodenum. With parasympathetic or vagal stimulation it opens up or relaxes and with sympathetic stimulation it contracts or closes.
The four bodily sphincters are the: 1. lower esophageal sphincter, or cardiac sphincter (esophagus to the stomach)2. Pyloric sphincter (stomach to small intestines)3. Ileocecal sphincter or valve (small intestines to large intestines)4. Anal sphincter (rectum to outside)
The lower esophageal sphincter is also known as the cardiac sphincter due to its proximity to the heart. It is a muscular valve that helps prevent stomach acid and contents from flowing back up into the esophagus.
The pyloric sphincter is a muscular valve that controls the flow of partially digested food (chyme) from the stomach to the small intestine. It regulates the release of chyme in small amounts to ensure proper digestion and absorption of nutrients. Dysfunction of the pyloric sphincter can lead to conditions like gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.

The pyloric sphincter, or valve, is a strong ring of smooth muscle at the end of the pyloric canal and lets food pass from the stomach to the duodenum. It receives sympathetic innervation from celiac ganglion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pylorus

Yes, The pyloric sphincter valve regulates the exit of digested food from the stomach to the small intestine.
Only if the valve stem is bad.
A muscular valve is like a strong flap that is capable of opening and closing at will. An example of a muscular valve is the pyloric sphincter.
I believe that it is called the Pyloric Sphincter.

Bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gall bladder. The presence of lipids in the duodenum causes the release of bile. Ultimately the liver and gall bladder control the release of bile.
