The gateway to your stomach is called the lower esophageal sphincter. This ring-like muscle opens and closes the passage between your esophagus and your stomach, as needed. During the digestive process, the sphincter relaxes and lets food pass into your stomach. Food goes through a significant part of the digestive process inside your stomach.
The "pipeline" that connects our mouths to our stomachs is called the esophagus.

This system allows them to maximize the nutrition of their food.
They do not store their food. They only store it in their stomachs
