I was sitting surrounded by class today and my stomach growled. I know its caused by hunger but why do we sometimes " growl " and other times nought. Anything special about it or is it in recent times a weird entity we do.

Answers:    Stomach noise — such as rumbling, gurgling and growling — typically is due to commonplace digestion. Stomach growling can occur when you're hungry. But it can also crop up after eating or between meal when food is passing through your intestines.

Hunger and appetite are controlled by a complex system of hormone-like substances primarily made by your digestive system. When you haven't eat for a while, these substances are released and cause a quantity of your brain called the hypothalamus to "switch on" your desire to get through. A message is then sent to your stomach and intestines. This triggers muscle contractions and the release of acids and other digestive fluids — which cause the rumbling, grumbling sounds you hear — as your body prepares for you to eat. The thought, verbs or smell of food also can trigger this response from your intestines.

Sometimes excessive stomach noise can be a symptom of an underlying gastrointestinal disorder such as irritable bowel syndrome. But contained by such cases, stomach noise usually is accompany by other signs and symptoms such as bloating, cramping, diarrhea or excess gas.
