Uvula
Fleshy appendage that hangs from the back of the palate
Uvula
The uvula (pl.: uvulas or uvulae), also known as the palatine uvula or staphyle, is a conic projection from the back edge of the middle of the soft palate, composed of connective tissue containing a number of racemose glands, and some muscular fibers. It also contains many serous glands, which produce thin saliva. While historically believed that only humans have a uvula, the same structure has been found in miniature pigs.
