From mouth (a) Peristalsis: Adjacent segments of alimentary tract organs alternately contract and relax, which moves food along the tract distally. (b) Segmentation: Nonadjacent segments of alimentary tract organs alternately contract and relax, moving the food forward then backward. Food mixing and slow food propulsion occurs.

Bolus of food Tongue Uvula Pharynx Bolus Epiglottis Epiglottis Glottis Trachea Bolus Esophagus Upper esophageal sphincter is contracted. During the buccal phase, the tongue presses against the hard palate, forcing the food bolus into the oropharynx where the involuntary phase begins. 1 The uvula and larynx rise to prevent food from entering respiratory passageways. The tongue blocks off the mouth. The upper esophageal sphincter relaxes, allowing food to enter the esophagus. 2 The constrictor muscles of the pharynx contract, forcing food into the esophagus inferiorly. The upper esophageal sphincter contracts (closes) after entry. 3 Relaxed muscles 4 Food is moved through the esophagus to the stomach by peristalsis. Relaxed muscles 5 The gastroesophageal sphincter opens, and food enters the stomach. Circular muscles contract Bolus of food Longitudinal muscles contract Gastroesophageal sphincter closed Gastroesophageal sphincter opens Stomach

Chemical energy (high-energy electrons)
Electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation Glycolysis Krebs cycle Pyruvic acid Glucose Mitochondrial cristae Mitochondrion Cytosol Via oxidative phosphorylation Via substrate-level phosphorylation During glycolysis, each glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid in the cytosol. 1 The pyruvic acid then enters the mitochondrial matrix, where the Krebs cycle decomposes it to CO2. During glycolysis and the Krebs cycle, small amounts of ATP are formed by substrate- level phosphorylation. 2 Energy-rich electrons picked up by coenzymes are transferred to the elec- tron transport chain, built into the cristae membrane. The electron transport chain carries out oxidative phosphorylation, which accounts for most of the ATP generated by cellular respiration. 3
