LARYNX
Larynx is located around your neck.The main job or function of Larynx is to transport air into trachea.By the way it is okay that you don't know what a trachea is because i am going to tell you on the next page.Anyway it has one very important function too which is it prevents foods and fluids from entering the air passage to cause choking.Larynx also has a cilia which reaches particles toward the pharynx to be eaten.The interesting thing is that foods and fluids from the pharynx are in most cases are not allowed to enter the larynx by the epiglottis.When you are swallowing the larynx and the epiglottis will come close to each other this causes foods and fluids to be routed to the esophagus.
