Ans. The pharynx is made up of 3 very different parts and these parts are known as the nasal pharynx, the oral pharynx, and the laryngeal pharynx. These 3 parts make up the entire structure of the pharynx. The location of the nasal pharynx, as the name would suggest, is right behind the nasal cavity. The location of the oral pharynx is on the posterior region of the oral cavity. One important thing to know about the oral pharynx is that it goes from the oral cavity to the hyoid bone that is situated in the throat. The laryngeal pharynx is situated in the epiglottis.
