It is then stored in the hollow lumen of the terminal ileum as it awaits the opening of the ileocecal sphincter. Small masses of chyme are pushed into the cecum by waves of peristaltic contraction of the walls of the terminal ileum coordinated with the opening of the ileocecal sphincter.
In California, drivers can be fined more than $475 and get a point on their driving records, therefore increasing insurance rates, if a child under the age of 8 is sitting in the front seat. However, there are some exemptions to the law, and a child under age 8 can ride in the front seat if: There is no rear seat. The rear seats are side-facing jump seats.
It turns out that my state (New Hampshire) has no laws regarding when a child can move into the front seat of the car. Nor, apparently, does New York or most other states. California does: children 7 and under and shorter than 57 inches must ride in back. (I consulted a chart at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, but I suggest checking your state more specifically. I had good luck with a search for child front seat height weight [state].) Of course, I donât rely on laws for every safety concern. New Hampshire state law doesnât require a seat belt for adults either, or for that matter, a motorcycle helmet. I just hadnât realized that the front seat was going to be a judgment call.
