Which layer of the alimentary canal contracts in order to move materials through the canal?
Muscular layer
Which layer of the wall of the alimentary canal contracts to move materials through the canal?
The muscular layer, known as the muscularis externa, contracts to facilitate the movement of materials through the alimentary canal. This layer is made up of smooth muscle that helps propel food and waste products through the digestive system via peristalsis.
Does the muscular system move fluid substances through hollow organs?
Food in its varying states of digestion is moved through the hollow alimentary canal by means of a series of muscular contractions known as peristalsis, which squeezes the alimentary canal, in much the way that you would squeeze a tube of toothpaste to move toothpaste through the tube.

Which layer of the alimentary canal is made of the smooth muscle involved in peristalsis?
The muscular layer responsible for peristalsis in the alimentary canal is the muscularis externa. It is composed of smooth muscle fibers arranged in circular and longitudinal layers that contract and relax to push food along the digestive tract through coordinated movements known as peristalsis.
Muscular wave-like movement of digestive tract walls?
