The pharynx conducts air from the nasopharynx to the laryngopharynx.
The laryngopharynx is a subdivision of the pharynx, which is the muscular tube that connects the nasal cavity and mouth to the esophagus. The laryngopharynx is located below the oropharynx and plays a role in both respiration and digestion.
The laryngopharynx branches off into two passageways: the esophagus, which leads to the stomach, and the trachea, which leads to the lungs.
