Pinyin/Pharynx

The pharynx is an organ in the back of the throat. It is part of the gastrointestinal system. It comes after the mouth and before the esophagus. Food and air go through the pharynx. It prevents food and liquids to enter the lungs.

The 3 parts of the pharynx can be thought of as where 3 tubes (nose, mouth, windpipe) connect to it

The pharynx has 3 parts:

1. Nasopharynx - the upper part of the back of the throat, which links to the nose
2. Oropharynx - the part at the back of the throat
3. Laryngopharynx - the bottom part of the pharynx, before the windpipe and esophagus for separating them
