The appropriate answer is the peristaltic muscle muscle contractions.
Peristalsis, involves involuntary movements of the longitudinal and circular muscles, primarily in the digestive tract but may take place in other hollow tubes of the body, that occur in progressive wavelike contractions. Peristaltic waves occur in the esophagus, stomach, and intestines.

<span>The correct answer is peristaltic muscle contractions.
</span>  Peristaltic muscle contractions include contraction and relaxation of smooth muscles that produce a peristaltic wave, which propels the bolus (mix of food and saliva which travels down the digestive tract). Muscles contract behind the bolus to prevent it from being squeezed back into the mouth and the rhythmic contractions work to rapidly force it into the stomach.

Nadph builds up in the ________________ during electron transport.
Yanka [14]

NADPH builds up in the STROMA of the chloroplasts during electron transport. In chloroplasts,  NADP+ is reduced by the ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is the reduced electron form of NADP+.

The NADPH coenzyme is generated during the last step of the electron transport chain of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.

NADPH is used by plant cells as an electron donor in different reactions associated with dehydrogenase and reductase enzymes.
