esophagus
The structure joining the pharynx to the stomach is the esophagus. It is a muscular tube that helps transport food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach through a process called peristalsis.
The pharynx is connected to the stomach by the esophagus. The esophagus is a muscular tube in which food passes from the pharynx to the stomach (Here's a fact: The esophagus is usually about 25-30cm long).
The pharynx leads to the larynx and the esophagus. The larynx is responsible for sound production and protecting the airway, while the esophagus serves as a passageway for food and liquids to travel down to the stomach.

The mouth, stomach, Pharynx and Esophagus
The esophagus connects the pharynx with the stomach. It serves as a muscular tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach for digestion. The lower esophageal sphincter, a muscular valve at the end of the esophagus, prevents stomach contents from flowing back up into the esophagus.
The esophagus carries boluses of food from the mouth to the stomach.
The mouth is connected to the stomach by the pharynx and oesophagus. The gastro-oesophageal sphincter regulates the opening of oesophagus into the cardiac portion of the stomach.
