Q. What type of muscle is primarily found in your digestive tract? Answer:
Smooth Muscle
Notes: Smooth muscle, unlike skeletal muscle, is not under voluntary control and is found in walls of most organs and structures that contain muscle such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus, urethra, and blood vessels. This muscle type's responsibility is the contraction and relaxation necessary for the grinding and churning in the digestion process.
