After the mouth chews and swallows the food, it goes to the throat and then travels to the esophagus or swallowing tube Next, the esophagus, through a series of contractions called peristalsis, delivers the food to the stomach which acts as the storage tank. The stomach contains hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes which when mix with the food, the food begins to break down into smaller molecules.
