The human respiratory system consists of the nasal cavity, throat (pharynx), voice box (larynx), windpipe (trachea), bronchi, and lungs. Air is taken in through the mouth and the nasal cavity. The nasal passages are covered by thick mucus membranes that contain tiny hairlike projections known as cilia.
