the nose
Yes, the trachea is the first structure classified as a part of the lower respiratory tract.
To determine if specific parts are part of the lower respiratory tract, you would typically consider structures such as the trachea, bronchi, and lungs. In contrast, the upper respiratory tract includes the nose, nasal cavity, and pharynx. If you provide specific parts, I can clarify if they belong to the lower respiratory tract.
The respiratory tracts are divided into three segments. Scientists believe that there are 20 to 23 divisions. The respiratory tract is part of the process of respiration in a human body.
The parts of the body involved with the upper respiratory tract include: the nose, the nasal cavity, the nasal and paranasal sinuses, and the larynx and pharynx.
The trachea is the part of the respiratory tract also known as the windpipe. It connects the larynx to the bronchi and allows air to pass in and out of the lungs.
No, the upper respiratory tract includes the nose or nostrils, nasal cavity, mouth, throat (pharynx), and voice box (larynx).
Gas exchanges occurs in the "alveoli".
The very first part of the respiratory tract are the openings into the nasal cavities called the nares.
The Adam's apple is part of the larynx, which is located in the upper part of the respiratory tract, near the throat. It is more prominent in males due to the differences in the size of the larynx between males and females.
This region is called the pharynx.
Yes they are. They are all connected by pesky tubes that can clog up at a moments notice and an infection in one can often end up as an infection in the other.
If you were unable to sneeze during a dust storm, you would likely miss the role of the medulla oblongata, a part of the brain stem that regulates reflexes such as sneezing. The medulla controls involuntary actions, including respiratory functions and reflexes that help clear irritants from the airways. Without its function, the body would struggle to expel dust and other particles, leading to discomfort and potential respiratory issues.
