The alar cartilages are small pieces of cartilage that divide the nostrils of the nose. If these cartilages are not in the center of the nose, the cartilage is displaced. This condition is also called a deviated septum.

What facial muscle flares the nostrils?

The Nasalis muscule is the main muscle of the nose. It consists of two parts; the transverse (compressor naris) and the alar (dilator naris). The dilator naris arises from the maxilla superior to the compressor naris and attaches to the alar cartilages of the nose. It widens the anterior nasal aperture, i.e., it "flares the nostrils."

What is a banned apple orchard spray?

Alar was a fruit spray containing the chemical daminozide. Alar was used as a pesticide and sprayed on fruit, mainly apples, during the 60's, 70's and 80's. The concern of the effects from Alar began in the 80's. In 1986, traces of the chemical from Alar was found in applesauce and apple juice. Doctors began urging the Environmental Protection Agency to ban Alar at that time because Alar was shown to cause cancer in the laboratory of animals. It wasn't until 1989 when CBS ran a story on the harmful effects of Alar that the EPA finally stepped in and banned the fruit spray.
