This is an example of my imagination process.



 

Is the expanded lumen affected by elastic energy?

The intestinal lumen causes contraction and expansion.

 

When expanded with applied pressure, elastic energy is generated.

Namely, energy other than muscle contraction may be involved.

If so, the dynamics of spring vibration may be involved.

Is this just a toy?


Small intestine?


 The next process of thinking is why the muscular layer of the  megacolon becomes thin.

 I think that it is an extended spring.

Extended springs do not have sufficient retraction force.
