Pyloric Sphincter
The esophagus connects the pharynx with the stomach. It serves as a muscular tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach for digestion. The lower esophageal sphincter, a muscular valve at the end of the esophagus, prevents stomach contents from flowing back up into the esophagus.
The esophagus is open to the mouth and the stomach to allow food and liquids to pass. The trachea is open to the nose and mouth, leading to the lungs to facilitate breathing and air flow.
