The wave-like motion that aids in swallowing is called peristalsis. It involves a series of coordinated, rhythmic muscle contractions in the esophagus that push food from the throat to the stomach. This process ensures that food is moved efficiently along the digestive tract, overcoming gravity and other obstacles. Peristalsis is essential for proper digestion and is controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
