Solution(By Examveda Team)

Air, food and liquid all pass through this common passage, the oropharynx. The two passages separate again here, in the hypopharynx. Food and liquid pass backward into the esophagus on their way to the stomach. Air passes forward through the larynx and into the trachea, on its way to the lungs.
