Best Answer

the goblet cells in the bronchioles produce a mucus which traps foreign substances in the airway such as pollen, pathogens and dust particles. The cilia of the ciliated cells will then waft the mucus and the trapped particles up to the larynx where it can be swallowed and the pathogens can be destroyed by the stomach acid. The cilia can waft due to the energy produced in the cells (in the form of ATP) by the mitochondria.

The cilia are very fine hairs, which move in waves, carrying dirt upward to the trachea to be expelled by coughing.

Does human and dirt DNA have the same properties?

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a fundamental component of life as we know it. Dirt is not an example of life. In order to be 'alive,' an object must metabolize through the intake and use of nutrients, self-perpetuate by reproduction, and adapt to its environment through endogenous changes. Dirt does not metabolize, does not reproduce, and does not adapt. Furthermore, dirt is not composed of cells, the fundamental building blocks of life as we know if, but of granules. These granules are composed mostly of silicate minerals, not living material. There may be some DNA in some dirt samples, but this DNA does not belong to the dirt, rather to something that has somehow deposited its DNA into/onto the dirt, likely through decomposition. If dirt had DNA, and that DNA had the same properties as human DNA, then dirt would look exactly like humans.
