What happens to the air when it passes through a nose?
The air is moved around like an airplane during a turbulence to help clean it and warm it for the body.
What is true A warm air is less dense than cool air B warm air is as dense as cool air. C warm air has no density. D warm air is denser than cool air?
Warm air is less dense than cool air.
Would sound travel faster in warm air or cold air why?
The sound travel faster in warm air because the average mean speed of the molecules of air is faster in warm air than on cool air. Sound is transferred by collisions of molecules. Therefore sound waves will travel faster on warm air because collisions of molecules of air in warm air is greater.
How does warm air molecules move?
The molecules in warm air move faster
What kind of density do warm air mass and cold air masses have?
Cold air is more dense than warm air. This is why cold air masses tend to descend, and warm air masses tend to rise.
What are two functions of the nose?
The nose both warms and filters incoming air. The thorough vasculature of the nose allows blood from the body to warm the incoming air while the nasal conchae and meatii are covered with mucosal epithelium that capture dust and particulate matter and cilia that propel the mucus produced.
Why does human nose have hair?
Hair is important to the human nose. It provides filtration for incoming air.
Does Mucus helps moisten warm and filter the air as it enters the nose?
True Mucus helps moisten warm and filter the air as it enters the nose.
Is hair important to human nose?
Yes. It prevents larger particles in the air from traveling to your lungs.
Do blood vessels warm the air you breathe in?
Yes, the vessels inside your nose warm the air you inhale.
What are the two divisions of the nose?
The External nose which is the nostrils which have to do with incoming air, olfaction, and speech. The other division is the Internal nose which consists of the choanae and the nasal cavity.
What parts of the nose which keep the air warm and moist?
The fine nose hair and the mucus. The mucus moist the air and the nose hair traps the dust and cleans the air.
What collects incoming air from the nose and passes it downward to the trachea?
nose to throat to trachea to bonchi to bronchioles to alvelus.
How can nose hairs protect your body?
It helps keep out foreign bodies.
How the nose helps to clean air as the air enters the respiratory system?
Mucus in the nose helps trap particles entering the respiratory system. The hairs/cilia of the respiratory system also filter incoming air.
What is a passageway for air and filters incoming air?
The nose and the nasal cavity are important structures in the respiratory system for incoming air.The nose has many internal hairs that guard the nostrils, preventing entry of large particles carried in the air. The sticky mucous that the mucous membrane secretes in the nasal cavityentraps dust and other small particles entering with the air.
What warms and cleans air moving into the body?
The upper respiratory system cleans and warms the air even before going into the lungs. Tiny hairs in the upper tract remove particles which have become stuck in mucous made by the membranes. These same membranes warm and add moisture to the air before it reaches the alveoli.
