Peristalsis is the wave of muscle contractions that allow circular muscles to constrict the gut and longitudinal muscles to shorten it in an attempt to move the food bolus towards the rectum. A series of dilutions

length-tension relationships represent an important part in the function of skeletal muscle. When skeletal muscle is stimulated‚ passive tissue rapidly changes into dynamic tissue which can produce force. Furthermore‚ during this process‚ the length of muscle may decrease‚ increase‚ or remain the same. Moreover‚ the amount of power a muscle can produce depends on its length‚ velocity and stimulation Powers & Howley (2015). Muscle velocity and stimulation are normally in a constant when creating a length-tension
