the heart, the stomach
The cardiac stomach is found in the digestive system of some animals, such as birds and insects. In birds, it is located near the entrance of the stomach where the esophagus meets the stomach. It functions primarily in the storage and initial breakdown of food before it moves to the main stomach for further digestion.
The sphincter at the top of the stomach is called the cardiac sphincter because it is located near the heart, which is known as the cardiac region. This sphincter helps regulate the passage of food from the esophagus into the stomach, preventing backflow of stomach contents into the esophagus.
