After food leaves the colon, it is formed into feces, which are stored in the rectum. When the rectum is full, nerves signal the body to eliminate the waste through the anus during the process of defecation. This marks the final stage of digestion, where indigestible materials and waste products are expelled from the body.

Where does peristalsis move food to?

Peristalsis starts in the back of the tongue and moves food down the esophagus to the stomach. The food is later squeezed into the small intestines where peristalsis moves the food 'bolus' (BOW-luss) down the small intestines to the large intestine, or colon. Peristalsis in the colon moves the bolus into the rectum, which makes you feel like you have to go to the bathroom. Peristalsis in the colon and rectum force the bolus down and out and into the toilet.
