The fine hairs on the cells in your trachea and bronchi are called cilia. These tiny, hair-like structures play a crucial role in the respiratory system by helping to move mucus and trapped particles out of the airways, keeping them clear of debris and pathogens. The coordinated movement of cilia ensures that mucus is pushed upward toward the throat, where it can be swallowed or expelled. This protective mechanism is essential for maintaining respiratory health.
