| peristalsis |
A wave-like movement that travels along some of the hollow tubes in the body, such as the digestive tract. It is brought about by the coordinated contraction and relaxation of muscles in the walls of the hollow tubes, and serves to move material through the tubes in a specific direction. It is an involuntary (subconscious) process.
