The paranasal sinuses lighten the skull and act as resonance chambers for speech?

Yes, that is correct. The paranasal sinuses are air-filled cavities within the bones of the skull, which help to reduce the weight of the skull and provide resonance for sound during speech.


What are two possible functions of the sinuses?

possible functions of the sinuses include: 1. air conditioning 2. pressure damping 3. reduction of skull weight 4. heat insulation 5. flotation of skull in water 6. increasing the olfactory area 7. mechanical rigidity 8. vocal resonance and diminution of auditory feedback 9 There are four pairs sinuses, the maxillary is largest, then frontal ,ethmoidal and sphenoidal is ( below eye sockets) is to provide mucous and act as a resonance chamber for sound +lighten weight of the skull. 10. mucous glands moisten the air ciculating between the conchae, if fluid does not drain , this causes sinuses headache.


What is the function of sinuses?

Sinuses are air-filled cavities in the skull that help to humidify and filter air as it passes through the nasal passages. They also contribute to the resonance of the voice and help lighten the weight of the skull.


What serves as resonant chamber and reduces weight of skull?

Paranasal sinuses serve as resonant chambers and help reduce the weight of the skull by providing air-filled cavities that decrease the overall density of the skull structure.


Functions of the sinuses?

The sinuses help to lighten the skull, provide resonance to the voice, insulate sensitive structures like the eyes and brain, produce mucus to trap foreign particles, and humidify and filter the air we breathe.

What is the purpose of the sinus?

The related article from Ear, Nose, & Throat Associates of Corpus Christi really explains it well. According to them and the Sinus Wars site:They lighten the weight of the skull and this is the reason why your head feels heavy and you feel tired and sleepy during a sinus attack.They give resonance to your voice.They also filter and moisten the air that we breathe.They also remove unwanted air particles.
