CAS-06-502P Module: Perception

Discussion Questions:

Direction: Choose one and answer briefly on the space below.

Suppose a friends says. 'I can tell when i'm hungry because my stomach always

growis". Explain why your friends is mistaken.

ANSWER: The growling is caused by peristalsis which is the muscle contraction

happening in the digestive tract, specifically the moving of food and waste by the

stomach and intestines. Loud “growling” are caused by certain foods with too much fiber

and even stress. Meaning the growling we hear is perfectly normal and definitely does

not mean we are hungry. However, there are certain cases that the growling occurs

along with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. and that were not considered to be normal.
