Peristalsis is a series of organized muscle contractions that occur throughout the digestive tract. Peristalsis is also seen in the tubular organs that connect the kidneys to the bladder.
Peristalsis is an automatic and important process that moves food through the digestive system. It also moves urine from the kidneys into the bladder, and bile from the gallbladder into the duodenum.
Peristalsis is a normal function of the body. It can sometimes be felt in the abdomen as gas moves along.

peristalsis is voluntary, the pharyngeal-esophageal is the invoulantary movements of swallowing!
The process in which muscles propel food through the alimentary canal is called peristalsis.

The muscular movement of the esophagus when swallowing food parts.....is not the symbiosis,statis and metabolism it is the PERISTALSIS........that's all I hope I can help........
causes a wave of esophageal contraction called peristalsis. Peristalsis pushes food along the esophagus. Normally, peristalsis causes the esophageal sphincter to relax and allow food into the stomach.
Peristalsis is the term for the wavelike motions of the esophagus.
The tongue helps move food to the back of the mouth through a series of muscular contractions, called peristalsis, which helps facilitate the swallowing process. This movement also helps mix saliva with the food to form a bolus for easier swallowing.
Starch is being digested.
the process of swallowing is called deglutition.
The scientific name for the human species is Homo sapiens.
Swallowing is a complex process involving voluntary and involuntary stages, but once the bolus reaches the esophagus, it continues to be propelled towards the stomach via peristalsis, and the process cannot be consciously stopped without significant effort.
