Answer:

Peristaltic movement is the type of movement in which there is the constriction and relaxation of muscles of the esophagus, intestine, and stomach. It is a wave-like structure, which starts in the esophagus when the bolus of food is swallowed.

The contraction and relaxation of the muscles during the peristaltic  movement help in bringing down the food with the food pipe into the stomach. It is an important and automatic process which help in movement of food.
