Describe the internal features of the nasopharynx and oropharynx Identify the components of Waldeyer’s ring Explain why the nasopharynx is kept patent Explain why air does not pass into the esophagus and is directed only into the larynx Explain the functional significance of presence of cartilages in the upper airway passages like the larynx, trachea and bronchi Presented and edited by Dr. Akram Jaffar, Ph.D. This video and its channel are supported by "Human Anatomy Education" Page on Facebook   / anatomyeducation
