Answer: Regression.

Regression is a defense mechanism leading to reversion of the ego to an earlier stage of psychological development  instead of handling  in a more adult way.
In Aaliyah's case, she got stuck in the oral stage. This stage goes from birth to eighteen months of age. The main focus is pleasure seeking through the infant’s mouth, they need to taste and suck. if not,  the infant will be fixated leading to adult habits such as smoking, thumb-sucking, over-eating, and baiting nails.

Answer:

The structures that are part of the upper respiratory system are the nose, the pharynx, and the larynx.

The nasopharynx connects with the nose, the oropharynx connects with the mouth, and the laryngopharynx connects with the larynx. Then, the air goes to the larynx, where the vocal folds are. Once that it passes the vocal folds, the air is in the lower respiratory tract.
