The process by which smooth muscle in digestive organs squeezes food through the digestive tract is called peristalsis. This wave-like contraction moves the food along the esophagus, stomach, and intestines, facilitating digestion and absorption. Peristalsis is an involuntary action controlled by the autonomic nervous system, ensuring that food is transported efficiently through the digestive system.
smooth muscle
Muscle motion in your digestive system called Peristalsis helps the food to travel through your digestive system.
Smooth muscle in the walls of the digestive tract contract and form a movement called peristalsis.
The digestive system has smooth muscle through out it, and they help move the food.
Peristalsis is a series of involuntary smooth muscle contractions along the walls of the digestive tract that move food through the digestive tractperistalsis
SMOOTH muscle
the smooth muscle
The muscle action that mixes chyme with digestive juices throughout the digestive system is called Peristalsis. Peristalsis are wave-like of contractions and expansions of muscles. The muscles help to move the bolus (food) through the digestive tract. Peristalsis are located all over the digestive tract.
skeletal muscle contraction that squeezes the blood in the veins.
Wave-like contractions of the smooth muscle called peristalsis moves food through the digestive system.The muscles in the lining of these organs contract and relax from above the food which pushes the food downwards. this process works even if you stand upside down. it can face the strongest force of gravity very easily.The digestive system helps the body digest food. Bacteria in the GI tract, also called gut flora or microbiome.
Cardiac
Smooth muscle is responsible for peristalsis along the digestive tract. It is involuntary and helps to move food through the digestive system by contracting and relaxing in a coordinated manner.
