Description

The esophagus or oesophagus, colloquially known also as the food pipe, food tube, or gullet, is an organ in vertebrates through which food passes, aided by peristaltic contractions, from the pharynx to the stomach. The esophagus is a fibromuscular tube, about 25 cm (10 in) long in adults, that travels behind the trachea and heart, passes through the diaphragm, and empties into the uppermost region of the stomach. During swallowing, the epiglottis tilts backwards to prevent food from going down the larynx and lungs. The word oesophagus is from Ancient Greek οἰσοφάγος (oisophágos), from οἴσω (oísō), future form of φέρω + ἔφαγον.

உணவுக்குழாய் உணவுக்குழல் என்றும் அழைக்கப்படும். இது வாய்க்கும், இரைப்பைக்கும் இடையில் காணப்படும் உணவு மண்டலத்தின் ஒரு பகுதி. இது குரல்வளையையும் இரைப்பையையும் இணைக்கிறது. இது சுமார் 18–25 செ.மீ. நீளமுடையது.
