external nares
External nares ( Nostrils) are the openings formed by the external nose that open into the nasal cavity.
Air moves in and out of the external nares, also known as the nostrils. During inhalation, air enters the respiratory system through the external nares, where it is filtered, humidified, and warmed before reaching the lungs. During exhalation, air exits the respiratory system through the same external nares.
External nares are openings in the nostrils that allow air to enter the respiratory system during breathing. They also help filter and humidify the air before it reaches the lungs. Additionally, external nares play a role in the olfaction process by allowing smell molecules to enter the nasal cavity for detection.
