The longitudinal muscle in the ileum helps to provide support and structure to the intestinal wall, allowing for peristalsis and movement of food and waste through the digestive tract. It also aids in the mixing and propulsion of intestinal contents.
Longitudinal striations are parallel lines or grooves that run along the length of a structure or surface, often seen in muscles or bones. They can provide information about the direction of muscle contractions or the growth patterns of bones.
A compression wave is another name for a longitudinal wave.
The circular muscles in the esophagus help with peristalsis, the wave-like contractions that push food downward. The longitudinal muscles aid in the stretching and shortening of the esophagus during swallowing. This dual muscle arrangement allows for efficient movement of food along the digestive tract.
Yes, sound is a longitudinal wave.

smooth muscle
The rabbit ileum primarily possesses α1-adrenergic receptors, which are responsible for mediating smooth muscle contraction. Stimulation of these receptors by adrenaline or noradrenaline can lead to increased motility in the rabbit ileum.
between the circular and longitudinal muscle layers
In nematodes, circular muscle is absent. Nematodes possess only longitudinal muscle, which allows for their characteristic thrashing movement. This adaptation is part of their unique body structure, enabling them to navigate through their environments effectively.

The iliocecal valve is an involuntary smooth muscle sphincter located between the ileum (small intestine) and the secum (portion of large intestine). Its function is to prevent backflow or reflux into the ileum.
they are a band of longitudinal layers has been reduced to the muscular bands of the taeniae coli. It helps for mixing and propulsive contractions
In smooth muscle these transitionally alternating muscle fibers help to serve the actions of peristalsis. As the circular fibers contract the tube (lumen) constricts and as the longitudinal fibers contract it opens up the lumen.
