To determine: The mechanism by which the digestive system protects itself from digesting.

Introduction: Several types of enzymes and hormones regulate the activity of the digestive system. The movement or motility of the digestive system is under involuntary control. The movement of the gastrointestinal tract is a complex process that involves the coordination between the smooth muscle cells, neurons, and interstitial cells. Gastric motility is a result of the action of neural and hormonal signals.
