Examining the toilet practices of various societies living in different epochs, one may argue that toilets are an indicator for the level of civilisation. A comparison of thesupplementary collective toilets built during the technological era of Rome with the mediaeval towns of streets infested by human excrement provides a clear proof to such correlation.
  • the process for breakup of food items first start in the mouth. Afterwards, they are digested in the body by passing through the stomach, duedonum, small intestines and bowels and then, passing through the anal canal and anus, are extracted from the body by the faecal tract.
  • Puborectalis muscle contracts the area between the rectum and the anal canal. Puborectalis that functions to contract while standing relaxes in sitting or squatting positions and has the canal straighten.
