The trachea, better known as the "windpipe" is the consolidation of all the bronchi in the lungs. It is necessary to carry air from the environment into the lungs, and to return the carbon dioxide.
Gills on fish work differently and don't require a single passageway to the mouth, but the respiration of fish is somewhat different than humans. Perhaps one problem with gills in the atmosphere would be a drying of the mucous membranes which would quickly lead to suffocation.
Without the trachea, we also would not be able to easily form speech with the mouth, although some people with tracheotomies have learned to speak using air in their stomach.
