The right and left nasalcavities are separated by the vertical nasal septum.Each nasal cavity is tall, narrow, and elongated, resembling the nave of a gothic cathedral.
The sinuses connect to the nasal cavity. They are hollow cavities located within the bones surrounding the nasal cavity and are lined with a mucous membrane.
The ethmoid bone is the cartilage of the nasal cavity. It separate the nasal cavity from the brain and is one of the bones that make the orbit holding the eyes.
They are bones in the nasal cavity (or parts of other bones in the nasal cavity) that cause turbulence in the air moving through the nasal cavity. This will warm and moisten the air to help protect the lungs. There are three conchae in the nasal cavity, a superior, middle and inferior conchae (aka turbinates).
In the case of a broken nose, the bones that could be involved in a fracture include the nasal bones, which are the primary bones forming the bridge of the nose. Additionally, the maxilla (upper jaw) and the nasal septum, which divides the nasal cavity, may also be affected. Other structures such as the ethmoid and frontal bones can be involved if the injury is severe, potentially leading to complications with the nasal cavity or surrounding areas. Prompt medical evaluation is essential to assess the extent of the injury and any necessary treatment.

Nasal cavity.
The bony nasal cavity is made up of the hard palate and the palatine process of the maxilla. The nasal cavity is made up of the rest of the nasal sinuses and includes the bony nasal cavity.
The dagger-shaped bone in the nasal cavity is called the vomer bone. It is located in the midline of the nasal cavity and helps to separate the left and right nasal passages.
The nasal septum divides the nasal cavity medially.Thanks,seesaw81297
The nasal cavity opens up to the nasopharynx through the choanae. The nasal cavity is lined with mucosa except for vestibule. The nasal cavity has openings for paranasal sinuses.
The bones that surround the anterior opening of the nose are primarily the nasal bones, which form the bridge of the nose, and the maxillae (upper jawbones) that contribute to the sides and base of the nasal cavity. Additionally, the frontal bone contributes to the upper part of the nasal structure. The nasal cartilages also play a role in forming the shape of the nostrils but are not bones.
The bony ridges that warm the air as it travels through the nasal cavity are called turbinate bones or nasal conchae. They help to increase the surface area of the nasal cavity to aid in warming, humidifying, and filtering incoming air before it reaches the lungs.
