The palatine uvula is a conic projection from the posterior edge of the middle of the soft palate, composed of connective tissue containing a number of racemose glands, and some muscular fibers (musculus uvulae).
The palate is the roof of mouth and it has two sections: anterior portion or hard palate; and a posterior portion or soft palate. An extension of soft palate is called the uvula. When you look in your throat, look at the back part of the roof and you will see the uvula hanging downwards.
It is called your Uvula (or palatine uvula) and is connective tissue. It has no real function although some believe it helps with articulation of sound.The uvula is a muscle (muscularis uvulae) covered by mucosa. The uvula serves the function of closing the nasopharynx while swallowing so that food and liquid does not go into your nose when swallowing.

It is commonly removed in surgery performed for snoring or obstructive sleep apnea without causing nasopharyngeal regurgitation. It does indeed help with resonance of sound, but not with articulation.
