Answer:

Stratified squamous epithelium

Explanation:

Most animals, including humans, have stratified squamous epithelium in their esophagus. It may include keratin, which gives an extra layer of protection, allowing them to eat bigger and less chewed food. It should be noted that the esophagus has a mucous membrane and because of the muscular layers, called muscularis mucosae, the food can pass rapidly through it preventing damages in its layers due to coarser or abrasive food.
