Trachea
Question: What is a trachea?
Answer: The connection between your upper airway and your bronchial tree. It is round and cartilage
containing. It is easily seen in your neck and called commonly the adams apple. It is mobile due
to the hyoid bone, which holds it up and erect. It is the site where physicians perform surgery to
insert breathing tubes called tracheotomies.
