\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Structure of organ in respiratory system\Pharyngeal structure\Pharyngeal part\Pharyngeal wall structure\Wall of oropharynx\Structure of lateral wall of oropharynx\Palatine tonsillar structure\Entire palatine tonsil\Entire left tonsil (palatine)
