How is chyme produced?
it is produced by mixing food from the oesophagus with acids from the stomach to produce a thick semi-liquid.
How does the food reach the oesophagus in the absence of gravity?
Gravity is not necessary for the function of the human digestive system. Food is moved through its entirety by muscular action, beginning with the tongue (which pushes food to the back of the throat) and proceeding with the oesophagus itself.

Why if there are major differences in the muscle composition in each region of the oesophagus is movement of a bolus of food down the oesophagus normally uniform?
Despite the major differences in muscle composition along the oesophagus, which includes both striated (skeletal) muscle in the upper part and smooth muscle in the lower part, the coordinated activity of these muscles ensures uniform movement. The swallowing reflex initiates a peristaltic wave that propagates along the oesophagus, allowing for rhythmic contractions that push the bolus down. The transition from striated to smooth muscle is designed to maintain this peristaltic action seamlessly, facilitating the efficient transport of food to the stomach. Additionally, neural mechanisms and intrinsic reflexes help synchronize muscle contractions throughout the oesophagus.
