Pharynx and Esophagus
The tongue is the muscle that forces food into the pharynx. When you chew and then swallow, it is the back of your tongue that forces the food back and down your throat.
The tongue is the muscle that forces food into the pharynx. When you chew and then swallow, it is the back of your tongue that forces the food back and down your throat.
The pharynx is the back of the throat (divided loosely into nasopharynx and oropharynx) which allows food to enter the oesophagus and air to enter the thrachea.
Air must pass from the back to the front of the pharynx to enter the trachea and food must pass from the front to the back of the esophagus
The pharynx is the area immediately behind the mouth and nasal cavity before the oesophagus. The tongue is used to push the food towards the back of the throat to initiate the swallowing reflex. Swallowing reflex is initiated by touch receptors in the pharynx as a bolus of food is pushed to the back of the mouth by the tongue. Tongue
The digestive tract that carries food includes the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine. Other organs, such as the pancreas, are part of the digestive system, but don't carry the food.
This would be accomplished by the regurgitative process known as vomiting.
