Solution

The correct option is C Crop
Crushing and lubrication of the food takes place in the mouth. Crushed food from the mouth is carried to the crop through a narrow tube called oesophagus. Crop is the part which stores the food for short time and pushes the food into the gizzard where grinding of food takes place.
