alimentary canal
What is the location of the smooth er in the animal cell?
smooth muscles are present in alimentary canal
What pushes the digestion?
Food is pushed along the alimentary canal by peristalsis, alternating waves of contraction and relaxation in the smooth muscles lining the canal.
What causes movement of food inside the alimentary canal?
Peristalsis - the wavelike motion of the intestinal wall smooth muscles that push the food forward.
Which layer of the alimentary canal is responsible for segmentation and peristalsis?
the smooth muscles are responsible for perstalsis and segmentation, so that means its the muscularis externa. :)
What is involuntary musles?
These fibre do not work according to our will and get tired when overworked. These are found in the alimentary canal. The other name of involuntary muscles is smooth muscle.
Smooth muscle propels food through the alimentary canal by a process called?
The process in which muscles propel food through the alimentary canal is called peristalsis.
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.
What muscle has slow prolonged contractions?
Seems this best describes the smooth muscle tissue of the alimentary canal (intestines). This is a rather unhurried way to move the food (bolus) through the body to allow nutrients to be absorbed.
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.
Does the anal canal have muscles?
The anal canal has a ring of muscle, called the anal sphincter
What muscles are seperated by the vagina urethra and anal canal?
