No they are at the back of your throat, your adenoids are at the back of your nasal cavity.
Yes!!! they have palatine tonsils in the oropharynx located in the sides of their throat. See related link below.
The simplest lymphoid organs that are found at the entrance of the pharynx are the tonsils. There are three pairs of tonsils in the human body: the palatine tonsils, located on the sides of the throat, the lingual tonsils, located at the base of the tongue, and the pharyngeal tonsils, also known as adenoids, located at the back of the nasal cavity. These tonsils help in filtering and trapping pathogens that enter the body through the mouth and nose.
The oropharynx is the space behind the oral cavity and above the laryngopharynx.
The oral cavity is located in the head and neck region of the human body. It is the space inside the mouth where food is ingested and begins the process of digestion. The oral cavity includes structures such as the lips, tongue, teeth, and salivary glands.
The lymphoid tissue in the oral cavity is called tonsils. There are three sets of tonsils in the oral cavity - palatine tonsils, lingual tonsils, and pharyngeal tonsils (adenoids). They play a role in immune responses by helping to protect against infections.
Tonsils
The oral cavity, or mouth, contains the tonsils, teeth, tongue, and salivary glands.
Lingual tonsils are located at the base of the tongue, near the junction of the oral cavity and pharynx. They are a collection of lymphoid tissue that helps protect against infections.
Palatine tonsils and adenoids are NOT synonymous. Palatine tonsils, sometimes called faucial tonsils, are found at the back of the throat. Adenoids are the pharyngeal tonsils, located in the back of the nasal cavity.
No they are at the back of your throat, your adenoids are at the back of your nasal cavity.

Tonsils are the two masses on the back of the throat. Adenoids are high in the throat behind the nose and the roof of the mouth (soft palate) and are not visible through the mouth without special instruments.
