The tube that connects the pharynx (throat) with the stomach. The esophagus lies between the trachea (windpipe) and the spine. It passes down the neck, pierces the diaphragm just to the left of the midline, and joins the cardiac (upper) end of the stomach. In an adult, the esophagus is about 25 centimeters (10 inches) long. When a person swallows, the muscular walls of the esophagus contract to push food down into the stomach. Glands in the lining of the esophagus produce mucus, which keeps the passageway moist and facilitates swallowing.
Food is passed through the esophagus by using the process of peristalsis. Specifically, it connects the pharynx, which is the body cavity that is common to the digestive factory and respiratory system with the stomach, where the second stage of digestion is initiated.

Can you declare a function in the body of another function in c language?
yes, we can not declare a function in the body of another function. but if we declare a function in the body of another function then we can call that very function only in that particular function in which it is declared; and that declared function is not known to other functions present in your programme. So if a function is required in almost all functions of your programme so you must declare it outside the main function i.e in the beginning of your programme.
