Movement of food from oral cavity to stomach.Helps them swallow their food.Swallows the food.it moves food toward the stomach by muscular peristaltic contractions and by the beating of cilia that line its internal surface.The function of a frog's esophagus is to transfer food down to the frogs stomach.the frogs esophagus is where food goes through before entering the stomach.the frogs esophagus moves food to the stomach by way of cilia.
The plural for cilia is still cilia.
Stentor is a ciliated protozoan, meaning it has cilia for movement.
The basal body is the structure at the base of cilia. It is a cylindrical structure that anchors the cilia to the cell and plays a role in organizing the microtubules that make up the cilia.
No, cilia are typically not present in fungi. Fungi generally have flagella for movement, which are structurally different from cilia. Cilia are more commonly found in certain protists and animal cells.
Cilia
Propulsion of the esophagus is just a term for the way the cilia within the mucus lining of the esophagus move food down it into the stomach. You could swallow upside-down because of this.
In mammals, the cilia in the airways (the bronchioles) move the mucus which traps the particles in the air (that you breath) up and out of the trachea and let it spill into the esophagus from where it is swallowed. i.e. its a cleaning function.
No, cells of the esophageal epithelium are not ciliated. The esophagus is lined with stratified squamous epithelium, which lacks cilia. Cilia are more commonly found in respiratory epithelium to help move mucus and particles.

The esophagus of a fetal pig, like many organs and body parts, looks very similar to that of a human. It is a long narrow tube, pinkish in color, with cilia lined in the inside (to help push down the food). Click on the link below for pictures of a fetal pig esophagus:

No plants have cilia.
Stentor is a ciliated protozoan, meaning it has cilia for movement.
Yes, Balantidium coli have cilia. Balantidium coli is a ciliated protozoan parasite that uses its cilia for both motility and feeding.
No the parasites have no cilia.
cilia are not found in prokaryotes
