Tracheal Malacia is a condition in which the trachea does not stay stiff and open like a normal child. Instead, the airway is floppy and closes down on itself. In mild cases it can cause wheezing sounds and vigilant supervision and proactive treatment of respiratory infections is important. In more serious cases children can be on tracheotomy tubes for years (usually average time is 4 years). Most children who survive infancy will grow out of the condition by 3-5 years of age.

trachea help to connect mouth to the lungs for air passing down.
This tube is technically called the trachea, but is commonly referred to as one's windpipe. Be careful not to confuse it with your esophagus, which connects your mouth to your stomach in the digestive system.
The cartilage rings in the trachea provide support and prevent the trachea from collapsing during breathing. They also help maintain the shape of the trachea, ensuring the airway remains open for the passage of air.
It isnt. There is no gas exchange in the trachea this takes place at the alveoli.
No, peristalsis is the wavelike muscular contractions that help move food through the esophagus and into the stomach. The trachea is the airway that leads to the lungs, and peristalsis does not occur in the trachea to push food to the stomach.
The tube is known as the trachea, or windpipe. It serves as a passageway for air to travel in and out of the lungs. The rings of cartilage help keep the trachea open, while the cilia and mucous membrane function to trap and remove any foreign particles or debris from the air before it reaches the lungs.
