What causes movement of food inside the alimentary canal?

Answered by admin @



Answer:

Peristalsis mainly causes movement of food inside the alimentary canal.

In addition other movements of the stomach and intestines like segmenting movements and sphincter relaxation also help in propelling food through the alimentary tract.
