Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Peristaltic rush is caused by an irritated or excessive wall of the small intestine, resulting in watery stools or frequent defecation, i.e. diarrhea. Diarrhea occurs when a strong peristaltic rush passes so quickly along the entire organ that nutrients, electrolytes, and water are not absorbed.

Detailed explanation-2: -The pyloric sphincter controls the flow of chyme from the stomach into the small intestine. We previously learned that the pyloric sphincter controls the flow of chyme as it passes out of the stomach and into the small intestine. Chyme is the name given to the partially digested food mass.

Detailed explanation-3: -Food moves through your GI tract by a process called peristalsis. The large, hollow organs of your GI tract contain a layer of muscle that enables their walls to move. The movement pushes food and liquid through your GI tract and mixes the contents within each organ.
