Explanation:

• Question 23: The pharynx is commonly known as the throat. The windpipe is the trachea, the voice - box is the larynx, and the nasal cavity is a separate part of the respiratory system.
• Question 24: Olfactory epithelium is mainly found covering the superior turbinate. It is not lining the nasopharynx (which has respiratory epithelium in part) or the paranasal sinuses (which also have respiratory - type epithelium).

Answer:

• Question 23: throat
• Question 24: covering the superior turbinate
• Question 25: Trachea
