Peristalsis propels materials along the length of the digestive tract by coordinating contractions of the circular and longitudinal layers. Place the steps of peristalsis, listed below, in order. 1. Longitudinal muscles contract ahead of bolus. 2. Circular muscles contract behind bolus. 3. Contraction in circular muscle layer forces bolus forward.
