list three components of the larynx.
□ thyroid cartilage
□ tracheal cartilage
□ epiglottic cartilage
□ cricoid cartilage
□ costal cartilage
The larynx is part of the respiratory system. The thyroid cartilage forms the Adam's apple. The epiglottic cartilage covers the larynx during swallowing. The cricoid cartilage is a ring - shaped structure below the thyroid cartilage. Tracheal cartilage is part of the trachea (windpipe), not the larynx. Costal cartilage connects ribs to the sternum and is not related to the larynx.
