All of the following statements are true for ‘Intestinal Motility’ except:
Correct Answer: Does not depend on Gastric motility
Description: Increased gastric motility will cause chyme to rapidly enter the (small) intestine. This will lead to distension of small intestine and would increase its motility. Distension of the gut is the usual stimulus for peristalsis. Vagus/Ach increases activity in ENS; it would increase the motility and secretory activity in the gut. CCK is known to increase gall bladder motility and inhibit gastric emptying. It may enhance intestinal motility.
