There are two parts to a stomach: the pyloric section (lower) and the cardiac section (upper). The cardiac section is the place where most of the carbohydrate digestion occurs and it's right after the esophagus. It can also be called the "cardia."
There is a part of the stomach called the cardia, which is the uppermost region of the organ, located at the end of the oesophagus.
the cardiac region of the stomach, hoped it helped :)the cardiac region of the stomach, hoped it helped :)
The anterior end of a pigs stomach is called the cardiac stomach because it lies next to the diaphragm, just below the heart. Because the heart lies within the cardiac region, that part of the stomach was named so that it would be helpful in identifying the placement of the stomach within the animals body.
What is the function of the cardiac sphincter?
At the cardiac orifice of the stomach which separates the stratified squamous epithelium of the esophagus from the columnar epitheilium of the stomach. in simpler terms, its between the esophagus and the stomach
i thought it was that the "cardiac" stomach provided energy for the cardiovascular system, but im not sure.

The cardiac portion of the stomach stores the ingested food.
The cardiac section is one of four sections of the stomach. It begins where the contents of the esophagus empty into the stomach.
The cardiac sphincter is the valve between the esophagus and the stomach.
the stomach is an enlarged segment of the GIT in the left upper portion of the abdomen. it has opening from the esophagus called cardiac sphincter because it is near the heart. the region of the stomach around the cardiac opening is called the cardiac region. the most superior portion of the stomach is called the fundus. the largest portion of the stomach is the body. the opening from the stomach into the small intestine is the pyloric opening. this region is called the pyloric region. the muscular tunic consists of three layers: an outer longitudinal layer, middle circular layer and inner oblique layer. the submucosa and mucosa of the stomach are thrown into rugae when the stomach is empty. this allows the stomach to stretch as the stomach is filled. the stomach also contains different glands: mucous neck cells - produce mucus; parietal cells - produce HCl and intrinsic factor; endocrine cells - produce regulatory hormones; chief cells - produce pepsinogen the stomach functions primarily as a storage and mixing chamber for ingested food. as food enters the stomach, it is mixed with stomach secretions to form chyme. -->thoughtfulobserver :-)
Both are ring like muscles and keep something in. They are both part of the digestive tract. A cardiac Sphincter is a tight ringlike muscle at the end of the esophagus, and before the stomach that keeps a horse from belching or vomiting. A pyloric Sphincter is basic anatomy for anyone. This is also a tight ring like muscles at the end of the stomach that keeps the stomach acids in the stomach and not spilling into the rest of the digestive tract.
Stomach has 2 opening. - cardiac orifice opening of oesophagus into stomach - pyloric orifice opening between stomach and small intestine
What is the function of the cardiac sphincter?
Simply because it is closer to the heart. Cardiac refers to the heart.
Pertaining to, resembling, or hear the heart; as, the cardiac arteries; the cardiac, or left, end of the stomach., Exciting action in the heart, through the medium of the stomach; cordial; stimulant., A medicine which excites action in the stomach; a cardial.
