Answer:
Deglutition is the scientific term for the process of swallowing any food stuff into the body, particularly passing from the mouth, to the pharynx, and down through the esophagus. The food stuff ingested and swallowed is called a bolus. There are three stages of deglutition : oropharyngeal, esophageal, and gastroesophageal.
