Is the ear connected to nose?
Your Eustachian Tube connects your ear to your nose.
Are eustachian pharynx and bronchi all regions of the lungs?
The eustachian tube is a small tube that runs from the pharynx to the ear and deals with equalizing pressure on the ear drum. The pharynx actually has three different parts: the oropharynx, the nasopharynx, and the laryngopharynx. Technically, all three parts are used in the respiratory system, though they are not physically connected to the lungs. The bronchi, however, are connected to the lungs. They connect the trachea to the two lungs.
What is connected to the nasopharynx by the auditory or eustachian tube?
The ear -- specifically, the back of the eardrum or tympanic membrane
Which part of the ear has nothing to do with hearing?
---- ====== ====== eustachian tube ---- ====== ====== eustachian tube
What connects the middle ear to the throat helps equalize middle ear pressure?
Eustachian tube which runs to your nose. I believe the correct answer is the Pharyngotympanic (auditory) tube
What is the Eustachian tube connected to?
The Eustachian tubes are in the respiratory system. They connect the throat to the middle ear by way of two narrow tunnels that help equalize air pressure.
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"
What is located between the middle ear and the throat and serves to equalize pressure on both sides of the eardrum?
The Eustachian tube
Blocked eustachian tube?
The Eustachian tube is located within the human ear. If the Eustachian tube is blocked, air is prevented from passing through to the middle ear.
What body system starts with an e?
Ear, eardrum, eye and eyelid are body parts that begin with the letter e. Additional body parts include elbow, endocrine glands, erythroblasts (red blood cell) and eustachian tube (in the ear).
What is the function of the tube that leads from the middle ear to the throat?
The Eustachian joins the ear to the throat
What is the founction of the eustachian tube?
