The epiglottis is the structure that prevents the entry of food into the respiratory system. It is made of connective tissue.
it is a cartilagenous structure which prevents entry of materials from digestive tract from respiratory tract.When we open mouth it close.
The upper respiratory system (where air enters and exits the body) is composed of the nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx. The lower respiratory system (where the air moves to be processed) consists of the trachea, the bronchi, and the lungs. So the answer is either the nose and mouth, or the trachea, depending on how you meant the question.
mucous membranes of the respiratory tract
The main ports of entry for microorganisms into the human body are the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, and broken skin. Microorganisms can also enter through the eyes and mucous membranes. Each of these entry points provides an opportunity for pathogens to establish an infection if the body's defenses are compromised.
nose(nostrils) the first point of air entry.

These droplets can then be inhaled or enter the body through contact with contaminated surfaces.
Diffusion take place in these systems.
