A schematic illustrates rhythmic ring-like contractions partitioning luminal contents into discrete segments within a gut tube. This physiology and anatomy diagram depicts segmentation, a gastrointestinal (GI) motility pattern generated by circular smooth muscle in the muscularis externa of the small intestine (SI). In the organ-system hierarchy, the intestinal wall functions within the GI tract to mix chyme rather than propel it, enhancing mucosal contact for digestion and nutrient absorption. Alternating constrictions create pockets of contents, shown as brown boluses separated by blue fluid; no species or human subjects are specified.
