the enteric plexus (the intrinsic neural connections) in the git coordinate. The enterogastric is that when there is a lot of chyle in the small intestine, the gastric emptying is delayed. It is mediated by CCK-Secretin.
The gastrocolic is what causes the morning urge to use the toilet after having a cup of coffee
