Where is the pharynx located ?
The cavity at the back of the mouth. Is cone-shaped and has an average length of 76mm.Lined with mucous membranePart of the digestive system and repiratory system of many organisms.A flap of connective tissue called the epiglottis closes over the trachea when food is swallowed to prevent choking or aspiration. In humans, the pharynx is important in vocalization.
![Page 4: Digestive System Pharynx. Our Respiratory system 1) nostril, 2) nose, 3) nasal cavity, 4) superior nasal concha, 5) middle nasal concha, 6) inferior nasal](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e7f5503460f94b835a4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
More about Mucous membrane
The mucous membranes are linings of mostly, which are involved in absorption and secretion.It is found at several places continuous with skin: at the nostrils, the lips, the ears, the genital area, and the anus and the pharynx.

FUNCTION of the pharynx
Facilitate the passage of the food bolus into Facilitate the passage of the food bolus into the esophagus. Pharynx is designed to the esophagus. Pharynx is designed to directdirect the food bolus in this direction. the food bolus in this direction.
Second phase of swallowing takes place at the Second phase of swallowing takes place at the pharynx. The moistened food bolus is moved pharynx. The moistened food bolus is moved to the back of the mouth by the tongue to the back of the mouth by the tongue
An involuntary swallowing reflex is triggered An involuntary swallowing reflex is triggered which prevents food from entering the which prevents food from entering the respiratory tract. respiratory tract.
The tongue closes off the mouth, the soft The tongue closes off the mouth, the soft palate blocks the nose, and the larynx rises palate blocks the nose, and the larynx rises such that the epiglottis closes off the trachea.such that the epiglottis closes off the trachea.
Food then moves from the pharynx into the Food then moves from the pharynx into the esophagus.esophagus.

Thus no digestion and absorption takes place.
Reason for absence of absorption: The food haven’t been digested
Reason for absence of digestion: there is no presence of enzymes

Pharynx• Starts at the internal nostrils
and extends partway down the neck
• The wall of the pharynx is made up of skeletal muscles and lined with a mucous membrane
• 2 functions: a passageway for air and food, and• a resonating chamber (amplifying sounds) for speech sounds
• Consist of 3 divisionsFigure 1-4. The nose.

The structure of pharynx (I)
Pharynx describes the part of the throat that begins from behind the nose to the beginning of the voice box and the oesophagus.

Divisions Nasopharynx-Specifically related
to the respiratory system.Location: above the soft
palate, 2 nostrils lead into nasopharynx.The auditory tubes open into the nasopharynx. connect it with the middle ears to equalize
the surrounding & body pressure Tonsils (adenoids) are located in the upper wall of the nasopharynx.
![Page 15: Digestive System Pharynx. Our Respiratory system 1) nostril, 2) nose, 3) nasal cavity, 4) superior nasal concha, 5) middle nasal concha, 6) inferior nasal](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e7f5503460f94b835a4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Soft palate
Floor of the nasopharynx
Closes off the upper respiratory passageways during swallowing.

Divisionsoropharynx-related to digestive
systemLocation:
below the soft palate and above the upper edge of the epiglottis.
The epiglottis is the flap that prevents food from entering the larynx during swallowing.

Divisionslaryngopharynx-common to
respiratory & digestive system.
Location:
below the edge of the epiglottis
The digestive and respiratory systems lead into this part from above and lead off from it below.

Structure of pharynx (i)
• The muscles of the pharynx consists of three pharyngeal constrictors:
• superior • middle • inferior • stylopharyngeus
and palatopharyngeus muscles

Structure of Pharynx (iii)
• Muscles of the pharynx, viewed from behind, together with the associated vessels and nerves. (Modified after Testut.)

• pharyngeal cancer • cause is unknown• common among heavy smokers
and people who drink large amounts of alcohol.
• 7 times more common in men than women and generally occurs after age 50.
• Untreated cancer often spreads throughout the throat area to the lymph nodes and into the bloodstream, where the cancer is carried to other parts of the body.
• If no treatment, it will continue to spread and become life-threatening.
• symptoms• no symptoms• If symptoms are present,
similar to those of upper respiratory infections such as colds and other viruses.
• cancer : • slight sore throat that lasts
for over 2 weeks• hoarseness or a change in
your voice so that your voice sounds muffled
• trouble with swallowing or feeling of incomplete swallowing
• earache or blocked ear• bloody phlegm coughed up• swollen lymph node in the
neck• hard lump in the throat or
in the neck lymph node.• Large tumor block the
throat, cutting off the air supply, possibly causing you to pass out or suffocate.
If pharynx is damaged and not functioning
properly due to certain diseases, genetic birth
defects or injuries...

• Treatment
• Radiation therapy to shrink the malignant tumor.
• Surgery to remove the tumor. Tissue removed from another part of your body would be used to replace a part of the pharynx.
• Chemotherapy with or without radiation treatments and with or without an operation if the tumor is large and has spread. Side effects or complications from radiation or chemotherapy happens such as: nausea.Your health care provider may suggest medicines for nausea and vomiting. Your provider may prescribe corticosteroid drugs to help with possible side effects of cancer-fighting treatments.
• If early stage: these treatments may result in complete cure.

Do you think we can still survive without the pharynx ?
Any failure or missing of the pharynx can cause breathing, swallowing and voice problems.
Without the pharynx, it WILL cause choking or aspiration as food when swallowed may enter the windpipe by accident. When that happens, the person will be suffocated.
![Page 24: Digestive System Pharynx. Our Respiratory system 1) nostril, 2) nose, 3) nasal cavity, 4) superior nasal concha, 5) middle nasal concha, 6) inferior nasal](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e7f5503460f94b835a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Aspiration occurs when some kind of material -particulate (food, foreign body) or fluid (gastric contents, blood, or saliva)-enters from the pharynx into the trachea
With all these RISKS of having these problems choking , aspiration , DO YOU THINK ONE CAN STILL SURVIVE IN A CONDITION WITHOUT A VITAL ORGAN????

glossary•aspiration is the entry of
secretions or foreign material into the tracheatrachea and lungslungs . The patient may either inhaleinhale the material, or it may be blown into the lungs during positive positive pressure ventilationpressure ventilation or CPR.

Let’s have a short quiz ,shall we ?
![Page 28: Digestive System Pharynx. Our Respiratory system 1) nostril, 2) nose, 3) nasal cavity, 4) superior nasal concha, 5) middle nasal concha, 6) inferior nasal](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e7f5503460f94b835a4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What happens as a food bolus is pushed back by the tongue
into the pharynx?
The nose chamber is
sealed by the soft
palate/palate so the food
doesn't enter the nose.
![Page 29: Digestive System Pharynx. Our Respiratory system 1) nostril, 2) nose, 3) nasal cavity, 4) superior nasal concha, 5) middle nasal concha, 6) inferior nasal](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e7f5503460f94b835a4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Why do we cough or simply why does a cough occur ?
A cough is a sign that nerves in the
pharynx (upper throat), larynx
(throat), trachea (main breathing tube) or large
bronchi (breathing tubes in the lungs)
are irritated.

Little bird, tell me where is the position of the pharynx ?
It is located at the back of the mouth.
