Air enters the body through the nose or mouth, which are connected through the nasal and oral cavities to the pharynx, through which air passes to the larynx and food to the esophagus. Air passes through the larynx (the voicebox), and then to the trachea, the "windpipe". The main brochial passageways (bronchi) subdivide in the lungs into smaller and smaller airways, and finally to the individual air sacs called alveoli, where oxygen enters the bloodstream.

What is the path of air as it travels the body?
Air enters the body through the mouth or nose, travels down the trachea, passes through the bronchial tubes in the lungs, and finally reaches the alveoli where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is released. This process allows for gas exchange to occur in the lungs.
How does air travel when you inhale?
It travels down the trachea to your lungs.
What are the names of the tubes that air travels to the lungs from biggesst to smallest?
The tubes that air travels through to the lungs are the trachea, which leads to the bronchi (singular: bronchus), then to smaller bronchioles, and finally to the alveoli where gas exchange occurs in the lungs.
What body part let's out air?
Your lungs lets out air and it travels through your nose
What path is taken by air when is trevels from nostrils to the lungs in human beings?
The path taken by air when it travels from nostrils to the lungs are as fallows...1.The Trachea (wind pipe)2.The two Bronchial tubes (one to each end)3.The Bronchi-oles, the lungs*Some sources include the larynx as part of the lower respiratory tract, whereas others include it in the upper respiratory tract [which also comprises the nasal cavity (nose) and the pharynx]*Between them, the upper and lower respiratory tracts make up the whole respiratory system. And the the air travels from nostrils to the lungs.
Air enters through the mouth or nose and travels through the?
Lungs
Where do deer get air?
The deer most likely use their mouth or nose. They then expand their chest or lungs to withdraw the air from the atmosphere. The air then travels though the mouth or nose into the lungs.
How lungs get oxygen?
Oxygen enters the lungs when we inhale air. It travels down the airways and reaches the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs. Oxygen from the air diffuses into the bloodstream through the alveolar walls and is then carried to the rest of the body.
Where does air go after entering your nose and mouth?
After entering your nose and mouth, air travels down your windpipe (trachea) and into your lungs.
What carries air from nose to lungs?
nothing carries it, it travels down your trachea or wind pipe
What carries air in and out of the lungs?
Absolutly nothing. Air TRAVELS to your lungs. Nothing makes it go to your lungs.
How would you describe the behavior of light as it travels from the container to the air or as it travels in different media?
Light always takes the shortest path possible through any medium. As such, when it travels through a vacuum, it travels in a straight line (no refraction). When it travels through the air, the molecules in the air scatter it very slightly, causing some diffusion and refraction, depending on the composition of the air through which it passes. When it travels through water, the shortest path through that medium is not a straight, collinear line from the point of incidence...it is actually offset by a small angle (the angle of refraction). The bent path that light takes through water or another substance is actually the shortest path available to it through that medium.
