2. | Common term used to describe the part of the larynx which protrudes from the front of the neck. More noticeable in men than women | B. | Adam’s apple |
3. | Located at the center and base of the ribs, the soft part just above the stomach – the center of diaphragmatic power | C. | Trachea |
4. | The hard area of the roof of your mouth, just behind your teeth | D. | Nodes |
5. | The fleshy part at the back of the mouth | E. | Larynx |
6. | The flap-like cartilage that covers the trachea during swallowing to keep food and liquid from entering | F. | Esophagus |

10. | Hollow, tubular structure connecting the pharynx (in blue) with the trachea, through which air passes on the way to the lungs. The larynx consists of a framework of cartilage plates, with a ridge in front (Adam's apple); the epiglottis and the vocal cords, whose vibration produces the sound of the voice | J. | Hard palate |
