Best Answer

The respiratory system has a number of nonspecific defenses against disease. The hairs of the nose trap dust and pathogens. Mucus in the upper and lower respiratory system traps foreign bodies and pathogens. The cilia constantly move the mucus with this trapped material out of the system. The cough and sneeze reflexes also offer protection.
