The oesophagus passes through the thoracic cavity and into the abdominal part of the abdominopelvic cavity
The trachea is in the thoracic cavity. The oesophagus is housed mostly in the thoracic cavity as well, but a portion of it extends into the abdominal cavity.
Trachea and most of the esophagus lies in your thorax. Trachea lies in front of the esophagus.
Thorax.
The mediastinum contains the heart and its large vessels, the trachea, thymus, lymph nodes, aorta, esophagus and bronchi. It is divided into superior and inferior regions, the latter subdivided into anterior, middle, and posterior parts.
cranial cavity
Orbital Cavity
The Small Intestine is the part of the Gastrointestinal Tract that is involved in absorption and the bulk of the digestion of food. It is contained within the Abdomen mostly in the hypogastric Region.
Your esophagus traverses the thoracic cavity in the body. If it is patulous, that means that the sphincter muscle at one end is open, and is not working properly.
The thoracic cavity is divided into right and left parts by a median partition called the mediastinum and contains the heart, the thymus, the trachea, the esophagus, and other structures such as blood vessels and nerves.
The mediastinum contains the heart and its large vessels, the trachea, thymus, lymph nodes, aorta, esophagus and bronchi. It is divided into superior and inferior regions, the latter subdivided into anterior, middle, and posterior parts.
The mediastinum(media- middle; -stinum partition), a central areawithin the thoracic cavity, extends from the neck to thediaphragm and from the sternum to the vertebral column.The organs located in the mediastinum are the heart,thymus gland, esophagus, trachea and bronchi. The pleuralcavities are located on either side of the mediastinum.
The epiglottis is a flap of tissue that selectively blocks the trachea and the esophagus as needed. It blocks the esophagus, allowing flow through the trachea when breathing. It blocks the trachea, allowing flow through the esophagus when swallowing. This prevents choking and inhalation of food.

peritoneal cavity
This is the abdominal cavity.

the thoracic cavity
The trachea is a part of the respiratory system while the esophagus forms part of the digestive system. Since they belong to different systems, they perform separate functions. The trachea is larger and carries gasses in and out of the lungs. The esophagus is smaller and carries food from the mouth to the stomach.
The trachea enables the flow of air from the external environment into the lungs to absorb oxygen and other gases. The esophagus allows the body to ingest food for optimal nutrition and to maintain life processes.
The body cavity that contains the stomach is the abdominal cavity.
