Well you can cross out lungs and trachea.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

B isn't it, so it must be D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how does it work? whats the reasoning

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

You know what lungs are, right? It isn't a flap of tissue at the back of your mouth, is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

And since it covers the trachea, it can't BE the trachea.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

The diaphragm isn't anywhere near your mouth, so that's not it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and trachea is the trachea

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Mhm.

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

So it must be D then.
