Throat: Anterior part of the neck, in front of the vertebra
The throat is a part of the body.
The throat is connected to the mouth at the top and to the stomach at the bottom. The throat is where food travels after being eaten and chewed by the teeth. Fluid drinks, such as water, also travel through the throat to the stomach and on to the rest of the body.
