What organs in lower respiratory tract
Trachea through lungs
Conducting structures
Nasal cavity to terminal bronchioles; airflow, no gas exchange

What lines the laryngopharynx
Stratified squamous epithelium
Larynx
Voice box
Contains the glottis
Functions of the larynx
1) keep food/water out of airway
2) sound production (glottis and vocal folds)
3 cartilages of the larynx
Thyroid cartilage, cricoid cartilage, and epiglottis
Thyroid cartilage function and type
Protect
Hyaline cartilage
Cricoid cartilage function and type
Protect; connects larynx to trachea
Hyaline cartilage
