The oesophagus is about 25 centimetres long and moves food from the back of your throat down to your stomach. It takes about two to three seconds for the muscles in the oesophagus to move the food along. Your stomach is the tub at the end of the tunnel.
Swallowed food is pushed into the esophagus, which connects the throat above with the stomach below. At the junction of the esophagus and stomach, there is a ringlike muscle, called the lower esophageal sphincter, closing the passage between the two organs. As food approaches the closed sphincter, the sphincter relaxes and allows the food to pass through to the stomach. The stomach has three mechanical tasks.
