The Nostrils or the Nose.
The pharynx is part of two systems, the digestive and the respiratory. It moistens, filters and warms the air taken into the lungs.

ciliated mucous membranes
When you inhale, air is drawn into the nasal cavity, which warms, moistens and filters the incoming air. The nasal cavity includes mucus, immunologic tissue in the form of the adenoids to combat allergens, and a pathway to excrete mucus during times of infection/illness. In addition, neuroreceptors for the sense of smell are located in the nasal cavity.
The nasal cavity warms and moistens air as it enters the body.
The nose filters, warms, and moistens the air you breathe. Hairs and mucus in the nose trap particles and pathogens, while blood vessels help warm and humidify the air before it reaches the lungs.
The nasal cavity filters, humidifies and warms incoming air. It also contains olfactory receptors.
The nasal cavity
The Nose/nasal passages.
The cabin filter on a 2002 F550 is located behind the glove compartment. It is easily accessible in the area 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.
