How are dust particles that enter the respiratory system in the air expelled?

It gets caught in the mucus of the respiratory tract, and then the small cilia moves them up towards the mouth. Then you either cough it out or swallow it, so it goes into your stomach instead of your lungs.

∙ 12y agoPathogens can enter the body through the respiratory system. Pathogens that cause influenza, tuberculosis and bronchitis infect in this way. However the respiratory system has defenses to trap these pathogens and expels them. The first is mucus in the throat, this is a thick gooey like substance produced by the goblet cell, it is there to catch up the pathogens and it can be coughed up. Another defence are the microscopic hairs in the trachea, these are called cilia and are there to stop pathogens being taken into the body, so they get trapped and can be expelled by the mucus.

What system does oxygen enter the body?
The respiratory system.
Does it take longer for methamphetamines to enter your system if you smoke it?
No
How could phosphate enter the water system?
From human and animal's waste water.
How does THC enter your system?
you smoke marijuana and THC sticks to your fat cells.
Why do the dust particles move when a beam of sunlight enter the room?
The random motion of small particles in the air is called Brownian motion (named after the botanist Robert Brown). This motion is caused by the collisions of the particles with the molecules of the gases making up the air.
What system does oxygen enter the body?
The respiratory system.
Why do you have the respiratory system?
The respiratory system is the system for breathing. The system allows for oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to exit.
How can air pollution lead to respiratory problems?
Dust particles enter your lungs, and clog it up, leading to breathing/respiratory problems.
What structures of the respiratory system prepare air for entry into the lungs?
The structures of the respiratory system that prepare air for entry into the lungs include the nose and nasal cavity, which filter, warm, and humidify the air. The mucus lining the respiratory tract helps trap particles and pathogens, while the cilia in the airways sweep the mucus and trapped particles out of the respiratory system.
What is the size of Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter RSPM?
the size is less than 2.5 microns.....they can enter our respiratory system easily nd can prove harmful to our lungs....Answer: Particulate matter is generally sized as PM10 and PM2.5 the number indicating its size in microns.PM10 is inhaleable but is generally trapped in the upper lung/nose and can be expelled. PM2.5 is much finer and can travel deeply into the respiratory tract and is not expelled
Why are the tonsils important in the lymphatic system?
Adenoids and Tonsils trap harmful microorganisms, so they could not enter the respiratory system.
Where does the pathogen of influenza enter your bodies?
The viruses that cause the flu enter your body through the mucous tissue in your mouth, nose, eyes, respiratory system, and gastrointestinal system. The influenza viruses mostly affect the respiratory system when you are infected.
How does the respiratory system work with the other body systems?
The respiratory system works with the body to help our body function correctly. One of the things it does is it gives our cells/blood oxygen to take to the rest of our body.the respiratory system affects the body by allowing you to obtain oxygen
What is the intake of air in the respiratory system?
To allow the air to enter the body. The air can enter through either the nose or through the mouth.
Why adenoids and tonsils important parts of the lymphatic system?
Adenoids and Tonsils trap harmful microorganisms, so they could not enter the respiratory system.
What is the job of the cillia mucus and blood vessels?
Mucus traps foreign particles as it enters the conducting parts of the respiratory system. Cilia are microstructures lining the epithelial layer of those conducting parts that act to sweep up the mucus-bound foreign particles that otherwise would enter the lungs.
How do you take in the harmful particles in the air?
Harmful particles in the air can be taken in through inhalation, where they can enter the respiratory system and potentially cause harm to the lungs and other organs. It is important to minimize exposure to polluted air and use protective measures like wearing masks or using air purifiers to reduce the intake of harmful particles.
