Hey there!

As far as I can tell, there is no such thing as a bolus, tracheal, or salivary sphincter. There are two sphincters that esophageal sphincter refers to, which is the upper and the lower.

The upper esophageal sphincter prevents food that has been eaten from going into the air passageway and into the lungs. While this doesn't describe what your question wants, the lower esophageal sphincter does.

The lower esophageal sphincter is located at the very end of the esophagus right before the point at which food goes into the stomach. It prevents stomach acid and food in the stomach from coming back up into the esophagus. This will be your answer.

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Genetically modified foods are whole or modified foods that contain bioactive food components believed to provide health benefit

A few fresh fruits and vegetables are available in GMO varieties, including potatoes, summer squash, apples, and papayas.

An animal, plant, or microorganism that has had its DNA transformed via genetic engineering methods is referred to as a genetically modified organism (GMO).
Humans have been modifying creatures through breeding for thousands of years.
Over many years, breeders have systematically selected for specific features in animals such as corn, cattle, and even dogs.
GMOs are foods that have undergone genetic modification. Since using GMOs is simpler and more economical for farmers, the majority of goods in your local grocery contain them, making them more affordable for consumers.
GMOs are tested for safety for human, plant, and animal health by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
