The answer is (A) True: the pharynx assists in moistening and humidifying inhaled air.

Explanation: The pharynx, which is part of the upper respiratory tract, plays a role in conditioning the air we breathe. As air passes through the pharynx, it is warmed, moistened, and filtered before it reaches the lower respiratory tract. This process helps to protect the delicate tissues of the lungs and maintain optimal conditions for gas exchange. Therefore, the statement that the pharynx assists in moistening and humidifying inhaled air is true.
