How can I put it ... BOGIES! The mucus in the nasal cavity is rich in antibodies and other immune factors, and the cells lining the cavity also have tiny, hair-like protrusions known as cilia, which gradually waft the mucous layer away from the interior. The mucus dries, and falls away from the nose in particles of all sizes from the microscopic to the rather large lumps of dried snot that can be so pleasant to watch small children retrieve and use as dietary supplements.


What entraps microorganisms entering the respiratory passages?

Mucus produced by specialized cells in the respiratory system can trap microorganisms entering the respiratory passages. Cilia, small hair-like structures lining the respiratory tract, then help to move the trapped microorganisms out of the airways through a process called mucociliary clearance. Additionally, immune cells within the respiratory system can also work to engulf and destroy any trapped microorganisms.

How is air warmed and moistened as it passes through the nasal cavity?

The inhaled air 'swirls' around the conchaemoistens via the mucus secreted by the goblet cells and drainage from the nasolacrimal ducts; cleans by the mucus trapping dust particles and the cilia moving the mucus and trapped dust particles toward the pharynx
