It is the part of our body which is flexible in nature and has leaf like structure.It is located behind the tongue and has major role in digestion .
It helps in covering or sealing the wind pipe during ingestion .So that the food we doesn't enter in our wind pipe as it is injures us.Thats why we advice to not spwak while eating food because at that time food may enter in our wind pipe.
It next function is that it helps in seprating the respiratory tract from the lower digestive tract.
