Message definition (Gastrointestinal tract)
The human gastrointestinal tract consists of the [[esophagus]],  stomach, and intestines, and is divided into the upper and lower gastrointestinal tracts. The GI tract includes all structures between the [[human mouth|mouth]] and the [[Human anus|anus]], The tract may also be divided into [[foregut]], [[midgut]], and [[hindgut]], reflecting the [[embryology|embryological]] origin of each segment. The whole human GI tract is about nine meters (30 feet) long at [[autopsy]]. It is considerably shorter in the living body because the intestines, which are tubes of [[smooth muscle tissue]], maintain constant [[muscle tone]] in a halfway-tense state but can relax in spots to allow for local distention and [[peristalsis]].
