It’s part of both respiratory system and digestive system as it carries both air and food :)

windpipe connects the nose to the lungs (respiratory system)

oesophagus (or gullet) connects the mouth to the stomach (digestive system)

You have a rather big misconception by saying that the gullet carries both air and food. Refer to Snell's comment. They are two different parts.

The answer should be (1)
