Nasopharynx & Pharynx
Its function is to take dust out of the air as it passes through your nostrils to the lungs. That's why it is sticky.
Nostrils are one of the ways that air is taken into the lungs, it is just through the nose rather than the mouth. Hairs in your nostrils filter dirt from the air. Air taken in through the nostrils also passes by smell receptors (olfactory receptors), which allows you to get chemical information about your environment.
From the nose, air passes through the nasal cavity, where it is warmed, moistened, and filtered. It then travels down the pharynx (throat) into the trachea (windpipe) and finally enters the lungs through the bronchial tubes.
The external nostrils of a frog lead to the nasal cavity, which is part of the respiratory system. When the frog breathes, air enters through these nostrils and passes into the lungs for gas exchange. The nostrils also play a role in the frog's sense of smell, allowing it to detect scents in its environment. Additionally, during underwater activities, frogs can close their nostrils to prevent water from entering the nasal cavity.
Yes, cows do have large nostrils. These large nostrils will allow more air into the lungs than smaller nostrils would.
same thing human nostrils do - direct air into the lungs !
The nasal cavity is connected to the pharynx, or throat, through the openings of the nostrils. Air passes through the nasal cavity and into the pharynx for further passage into the respiratory system.
It is another source of air, the hair found in our nostrils will clean the air before it enters into our diaphragm.
They breathe air - through their nostrils which lead down to their lungs !
The internal nostrils of the frog open into the frogs mouth. When the nostrils open it allows air to enter the enlarged mouth.
