Answer:
Peristalsis is primarily found throughout the gastrointestinal tract and is the involuntary propulsion of food. This movement begins in the pharynx, once a food bolus is formed, and ends in the anus. Along with segmentation or mixing of food, peristalsis is an essential part of providing the body with nutrients.

The peristaltic movement also called as the Peristalsis refers to the contraction and relaxation of the food in the oesophagus and the food pipe and the food is forced down the track to the stomach. This movement is involuntary and is necessary for the movement of food down the stomach and bowels down the anus.
