What does the pyloric valve do to let food go from the throat?
The pyloric valve, also known as the pyloric sphincter, is located at the junction between the stomach and the small intestine. Its primary function is to regulate the passage of partially digested food (chyme) from the stomach into the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine. The valve opens to allow small amounts of chyme to enter the small intestine for further digestion and nutrient absorption, while preventing backflow into the stomach. This process ensures that food is released in a controlled manner for optimal digestion.
Where does chyme go after the pyloric valve opens?
Chyme passes through the pyloric valve from the stomach into the small intestine. Once in the small intestine, nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream while waste products continue through the large intestine for further processing and removal from the body.
