The muscles in the esophagus are primarily involuntary. The upper third of the esophagus contains skeletal (voluntary) muscle, allowing for some conscious control during swallowing. However, the middle and lower portions consist of smooth (involuntary) muscle, which operates automatically to facilitate the movement of food. This involuntary action is essential for the continuous process of digestion.
