The Trachea is located below the Larynx, which is just under the Pharynx.
The trachea is located in the throat, Near the Larynx. The larynx protrudes in men, causing the Adam's Apple, I'm telling you that so you can get a feel of where the Trachea is.
The Trachea is a tube that comes off of your throat. The Trachea leads to your lungs and allows air to pass in and out of the body. It can be found about halfway between your stomach and the start of your esophagus. The trachea is located in the larynx. In the neck

It is where the trachae splits into the two main bronchi. It is somewhat triangular in shape.

The region is called the Carina. In nursing when you're suctioning a patient you advance the suction catheter down to this point (the patient may cough) then you come up while suctioning out mucous.

'Bifurcate' means 'split or divide into two'. The trachea bifurcates at T5 and T7 vertebral level. It is the point where the trachea splits in two so that air can enter the left and right side seperately. It is like a back up system that the body has so that one side can still function if the other side fails.

Trachea is a fancy name for the windpipe. It runs down the back of the throat to the lungs - it's the way air gets from your mouth or nose to your lungs.
