The pyloric sphincter is a ring of smooth muscle at the junction between the stomach and the duodenum that controls the passage of partially digested food (chyme) from the stomach into the small intestine. It ensures that the chyme is released in a controlled and gradual manner, allowing for proper digestion and absorption in the small intestine.
