Dorsally, the neck contains the esophagus and the ventral to the esophagus is the larynx, which leads to the trachea. The esophagus is a flexible muscular tube connecting the pharynx to the stomach. Meanwhile, air moves from the larynx to the trachea to the lungs when you inhale, and the from the lungs to the trachea to the larynx when you exhale.
The Eustachian tube is a hollow tube of bone and cartilage that connects the middle ear and pharynx. It's purpose is to equalize air pressure. Children who have frequent ear infections often have chronic fluid in these tubes (they are parallel in children, as they age, the bones lengthen and they tip down and drain) It is a painful condition and can cause temporary hearing loss. Ear tubes are inserted in cases of frequent chronic earaches due to the eustachian tubes.
The eustachian tube (pharyngotympanic tube) connects the middle ear cavity with the nasopharynx.

Auditory (pharyngotympanic) tubes (commonly known as the eustanchian tubes), and the opening into the oropharynx.
The Eustachian tube connects the middle ear and the pharynx.
eustachian or pharyngo-tympanic canal
The Eustachian tube.
In humans, the eustachian tube connects the middle ear to a section of the throat known as the pharynx. These tubes are normally closed, but they can open to allow middle ear pressure to reach equilibrium with atmospheric pressure (think of the pops you hear when you drive up a mountain or go up in a plane). They also serve to drain mucus from the middle ear.

tonsils are a pair structure in the region between mouth and pharynx, usually both of them are inflamed and swollen together but occasionally not. There is a tube or a tunnel like structure which is connecting pharynx to the middle ear to equalize pressure by changing in the amount of air within it, when there is some problem in the pharynx like tonsillitis this pain radiate to middle ear and sometimes involved it.
The semicircular canals and the vestible are responsible for balance.
A slender tube that connects the tympanic cavity with the nasal part of the pharynx and serves to equalize air pressure on either side of the eardrum. See the related link for a diagram showing the tube. It is lead to your neck.
The eustachian tube joins the middle ear to the pharynx at the back of the throat.

Eustachian tubes lead to the eardrum. The name for the throat of the from is the gullet.
The function of the Eustachian tube is to help equalize pressure on either side of the eardrum. It connects the middle ear to the nasopharynx which is the area of the upper throat behind the nose.

pharyngotympanic ( pharyn: pharynx, go, tympanic:middle ear) is also called Eustachian tube or Auditory tube. this tube is the connection between the middle ear to pharynx (nasal cavity). the functions are: 1- the equalizing pressure between the middle ear and the atmosphere. 2-drains mucus from the middle ear.
The eustachian tube connects the throat to the inner ear and equalises the inner and outer ear pressure. It is this which causes the pop! when you fly in an aircraft and you swallow. The pop is the eustachian tube clearing.
