The mucus of the trachea is expelled from the respiratory tract through a process called mucociliary clearance. Cilia, tiny hair-like structures lining the trachea, move the mucus upwards toward the throat. Once it reaches the throat, the mucus can be swallowed or coughed out. This mechanism helps keep the airways clear of dust, pathogens, and other debris.
What else can I help you with?
What traps dust in respiratory system?
mucus!!!!!!mucus trap the dirt in the trachea!
What structures trap foreign particles and bacteria in the nose and trachea?
Mucus in the nose and trachea traps foreign particles and bacteria. The cilia, tiny hair-like structures in the respiratory tract, move the mucus and trapped particles upwards to be swallowed or expelled. This process helps to protect the lungs and respiratory system from harmful invaders.
What is the trachea lined with to sweep away particles and dust?
The trachea is lined with cilia, which are tiny hair-like structures that beat in a coordinated manner to sweep away particles and dust trapped in mucus towards the throat where they can be expelled by coughing or swallowing.
What hold mucus in thoracic cavity?
Trachea
What is the trachaelis muscle?
Helps expell mucus from trachea
What does the mucus lining in trachea do?
It traps bacteria and dust.
What is the function of globlet cells and cilia in trachea?
Goblet cells in the trachea produce mucus that helps to trap and remove foreign particles and pathogens from the airways. Cilia are hair-like structures that line the trachea and sweep the trapped particles and mucus up and out of the respiratory system toward the throat to be swallowed or expelled through coughing. Together, goblet cells and cilia help to protect the lungs from harmful substances.
Does the mucus lining of the trachea move foreign particles to the esophagus?
no
Where is the mucus in the respiratory system?
its formed in your nasal cavity and you trachea :)
How the trachea is adapted to reduce the entry of live pathogens?
it has mucus.
How is the trachea adapted to its function?
yooo
True or false the cilia and mucus in the trachea sweep upward moving the mucus toward the nose where it is sneezed out?
True
