Question

Explanation:

The trachea is the airway that connects the pharynx and larynx to the bronchial tubes, allowing air to pass. The nasal cavity is part of the upper - respiratory tract before the pharynx. The esophagus is part of the digestive system, not the respiratory system for air - passage. The epiglottis is a flap that prevents food from entering the trachea during swallowing, not a structure for air - passage between the pharynx and bronchial tubes.
