Detailed Solution

Concept- The food we swallow is delivered to the stomach through a pipe. This pipe, also known as the oesophagus, is called the food pipe.
An oesophageal tube is made of muscles. It joins the mouth with the stomach. The oesophageal walls contract together as you swallow food (contract). This causes the food to travel from the mouth to the stomach. The oesophagus, or food pipe, is a digestive system component. The tube links your mouth to your stomach to transport food. The windpipe is located in front of the spine and behind the trachea.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
