Answer:
The glottis, a slit-like opening on the floor of the pharynx, is a valve that controls airflow in and out of the respiratory passages. The glottis opens directly into a boxlike larynx. This voice box occurs in all amphibians but is anatomically most complex in frogs

Answer:
Intake of food, and respiration, both take place through the pharynx. Through the pharynx, the air goes into the wind pipe or trachea.
The function of glottis is to act as a slit through which the air goes into the trachea. While intaking food, the glottis is covered by the epiglottis to prevent entering of food into the trachea.
