Best Answer

The larynx (voice box) is part of the respiratory system that holds the vocal cords. It is responsible for producing voice, helping us swallow and breathe. Air passes in and out of the larynx each time the body inhales or exhales. Air from the lungs passes over the stretched vocal cords, and the vibrations are modified by the tongue, palate, and lips to produce speech.

  • The pharynx is not located in your digestive system, it's located in your throat; the tube or cavity, with its surrounding membrane and muscles, that connects the mouth and nasal passages with the esophagus.
  • The pharynx leads to the larynx and to the esophagus, which is part of the digestive system. It serves the digestive system by allowing food and water to pass through.
