What else can I help you with?
The cilia and mucus in the trachea sweep upward moving the mucus toward the nose where it is sneezed out true or false?
True. The cilia in the trachea sweep mucus upward, where it is then transported to the back of the throat and eventually swallowed or coughed out. If there is an excess amount that reaches the nose, it can trigger a sneeze reflex to expel it.
What is an upward moving current of air?
An upward moving current of air is called an updraft.
What does cilliary action in the trachea accomplish?
Ciliary action in the trachea helps to clear mucus and trapped particles, such as dust and pathogens, from the respiratory tract. The cilia, tiny hair-like structures lining the trachea, beat in a coordinated manner to move the mucus upward toward the throat, where it can be swallowed or expelled. This mechanism is crucial for maintaining respiratory health and preventing infections by keeping the airways clear.
Is an updraft an upward moving current of cold air?
No. An updraft (updraught) is an upward moving current of warm air.
Small hairlike structures found in the trachea that propels mucus upward are known as what?
They are known as "cilia"
What is the magnitude of a force of 117.4 moving upward and another force of 74.1 moving downward?
the magnitude is 43.3 and the direction is upward.
What does a trachea cell do?
Goblet cells embedded within the epithelium trap debris that we inhale. The cilia motion upward to 'beat' the debri upward passed the larynx to either be swallowed, sneezed, or coughed out. The purpose is to expel the debri so that it does not enter the lower respiratory tract.
When the diaphragm muscle is moving upward you are?
You are exhaling.
What are mucus and pathogens swept your of the larynx and trachea by?
Mucus and pathogens in the larynx and trachea are swept out by cilia, which are tiny hair-like structures lining the respiratory tract. These cilia move in a coordinated manner to push mucus upward toward the throat, where it can be swallowed or expelled. This mechanism is part of the body’s mucociliary escalator system, helping to keep the airways clear of debris and infectious agents.
How have mountains been created on earth?
by earthquakes moving and overlapping each other in a upward position by earthquakes moving and overlapping each other in a upward position
What is a respiratory cilia?
Respiratory cilia are tiny, hair-like structures that line the respiratory tract, including the nasal passages, trachea, and bronchi. They play a crucial role in maintaining respiratory health by moving mucus and trapped particles, such as dust and pathogens, upward toward the throat for expulsion or swallowing. This action helps keep the airways clear and prevents infections. Dysfunction of respiratory cilia can lead to respiratory diseases and conditions.
