Why a glass is stuck to mouth when air is sucked out from glass?

When you remove the air from inside the glass you are creating a difference in pressure compared to the air on the outside of the glass. This means that the inside of the glass "wants" something to fill it up, as your mouth is there it will pull your lips into the glass. The same effect can be seen if you have a half empty glass and try to pull it put of a bowl of water. You will see that the glass will pull some of the water out with it.
The scientific principle behind this can be explain by Boyle's Law which states that "at a constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas varies inversely with pressure"
So if you reduce the pressure then you will reduce the amount of space the gas needs therefore something will need to fill that space, i.e. your mouth

Air enters your respiratory system through?
Air enters the the respiratory tract through either the nose or mouth.
Why does dew produced when ice is in a glass?
Because the surface temperature of the glass gets colder than the dewpoint temperature of the air. Therefore the relative humidity goes over 100% on the glass causing water vapor in the air to condense into liquid water on the glass.

Why water does not spill out from a straw if you close its mouth with a finger?
When you hold the mouth closed then it will spill out, but after you sucked it and put your finger in its mouth... that's a diffrent story. You see the finger traps the air for escaping, which makes the water more active, since its squished toghther.

How do differences in air pressure cause a liquid to flow through the straw and into your mouth?
The pressure inside your mouth is less than the atmosperehic pressure above the glass. The water is pushed through the straw by this difference in pressure.
