Solution
The correct option is D Stomach
Food bolus from the esophagus enters the stomach.
The stomach is the dilated portion of the digestive tract where fragmented food that has been received from the oral cavity via the esophagus, is retained, macerated, and partially digested. Hence, Option C is correct.
