A stylized diagram depicts a segment of intestine moving a food bolus via a peristaltic wave. In anatomical hierarchy, smooth muscle tissue of the intestinal wall (muscularis externa) acts within a hollow digestive organ that belongs to the GI (gastrointestinal) system. From the perspectives of anatomy and physiology, the coordinated contraction of circular and longitudinal muscle layers propels and mixes luminal contents (chyme), enabling transit and facilitating nutrient absorption. The site represented is the intestinal lumen within the gastrointestinal tract.
