Answer: located behing the trachea in the neck.

Explanation:

After chewing, the food bolus passes through the pharynx and is directed to the esophagus. There, peristaltic movements allow the cake to be directed to the stomach. The esophagus is a tube about 25cm long. Because of the friction of the bolus on its surface, it is lined with stratified epithelium. To lessen this friction, the epithelium is lubricated by mucus produced by the submucosa esophageal glands. Between the esophagus and the stomach is the gastroesophageal sphincter that prevents the reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus.

What are the products of the hydrolisis reaction?
marishachu [46]

<u>Answer</u>:

Neutral molecules are the products of the hydrolysis reaction.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Hydrolysis reactions are double decomposition reactions. In these reactions water reacts to the ester linkage in a molecule resulting into the breaking of bond between the elements of the molecules.

The products those result include the one which receives the hydroxyl (OH) group from the reacting water molecule and another one receives the remaining proton (H+). For example, if AB is a compound in which A and B are atoms or groups after the hydrolysis reaction with a water molecule (HOH) the products of this reaction may be the neutral molecules represented by the given reversible chemical equation i.e. AB + HOH ⇌ AH + BOH.
