Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

Excuse me if my spelling is incorrect.



Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

the esophagus is the "tube" that carried food from your mouth to your stomach. it has muscels that help "push" the food through but does not have tiny hairs. The tiny hair are called cilia, but they are present only in the trachea, or windpipe, which carried oxygen from your mouth to your lungs.



Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

No.



Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

no the tiny hairs are in the intestines called violi



Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

No They dont....there are no follicules in any part of the digestive tract, follicules are the root pieces of the hair, from which hair grow, and perhaps you are mistaking "hairs" with cilia, or microscopic prolongation of the plasma, that do exist in the pipeline (trachea) where they are part of the microscopic composition of such organ....we find those in the larynx,,,,however, the humas esophagus does not posess by definition neither small cilia, nor big cilia----(OR TINY HAIRS IF YOU PREFER)



Do humans have tiny hairs in their esophagus?

Food is moved through the esophagus through muscle contractions. The tiny hairs you're thinking of is cilia in your nose that catches dirt particles, pollen, etc. and moves mucous along. This all has to do with the respiratory system, not the digestive system. The esophagus is not part of the digestive system. I hope this helps!
