Main function of epiglottis is to prevent the entry of the food into the wind pipe by sealing the larynx so that food is not inhaled accidentally. Epiglottis is a leaf like structure that is present behind the tongue and on the top of larynx. epiglottis also functions in sound production in certain languages.
