The Eustachian tube is attached to the upper part of pharynx from middle ear. This mechanism prevent damage to the ear drum by loud sound.

What two body parts are connected by the eustachian tube?
the eustachian tube connects the pharynx to the middle ear
Is the ear connected to nose?
Your Eustachian Tube connects your ear to your nose.
Does the eustachian tube connect to the pharynx?
Yes. The eustachian canal connects to the nasopharynx.
What makes the air pressure in the middle and outer ear equal?
pharyngotympanic or auditory tube (formerly known as the eustachian tube)
What is the structure that allows equalization of the pressure in the middle ear with that outside the body?
The Eustachian tube, nowadays known as the pharyngotympanic tube. THis structure connect the middle ear to the oropharnx allowing the air from outside into the inner ear, equalizing pressure and so reducung stress on the tympanic membrane. The tube is only open when the person is swallowing and this is why chewing gums on descending and ascending planes helps ears to "pop"
