Human physiology . menon,discharged by the mechanical stimulus, and effected by the ganglionplexus situated in the stomach. Many authors have verified Magendies discovery that a solidbody introduced into the pyloric antrum is at once shot out, andtails into the fuudus. This proves the excitability of the stomachto mechanical stimuli, under conditions not far removed from thephysiological. Some interesting details can be deduced from the work ofDucceschi. Twenty-four hours after a meal the stomach isimmobile, its movements commencing immediately after of an exploring balloon into the empty stomach,however, at once excites the movements. In proportion as thedistension of the balloon increases by the introduction of aconstantly increasing amount of water, the gastric movementsbecome more ample while their rhythm is approximately is, however, a limit to the distension of the stomach, 190 PHYSIOLOGY CHAP. after which its movements diminish, and are finally abolished(Fig. 64)..
