Besides the RLN, speech-related structures arising from the vagus include the: Once it turns back upward, both recurrent laryngeal nerves travel through a groove where the trachea (windpipe) and ...

These actions prevent food from going “down the wrong pipe” into the trachea (windpipe). The closure of the larynx by the epiglottis protects the lungs from injury, as food and other particles that ...
