An osophagos, more commonly referred to as the esophagus, is a muscular tube that connects the throat (pharynx) to the stomach. It plays a crucial role in the digestive system by transporting food and liquids swallowed from the mouth down to the stomach through a series of coordinated muscle contractions known as peristalsis. The esophagus is lined with a mucous membrane that helps facilitate the movement of food.
