Answer :
The Pharynx
If you look at the mirror and open your mouth wide, you can see the back part of your mouth arch into a tube. This tube or throat cavity is called the pharynx. It is connected to both the nose and mouth, and acts as passageway for both air and food. This is why you can still breathe even if your nose is blocked due to a cold. Structures called tonsils are found at the opening of the pharynx. They trap and destroy bacteria that enter the body via the nose and mouth.
