The internal nostrils, also known as the choanae, are openings located at the back of the nasal cavity that connect it to the throat (pharynx). They play a crucial role in the respiratory system by allowing air to flow from the nasal passages to the throat and subsequently to the lungs. The internal nostrils also help in filtering, humidifying, and warming the air before it reaches the lungs. Additionally, they assist in the drainage of mucus from the sinuses.
