Yes, air flows through the nasal septum, which is the thin wall of cartilage that divides the nostrils. The nasal septum helps regulate the airflow and directs it to the lungs.

What is a septum?

A septum is basically a divider of two things. Some examples include: the interventricular septum, that divides the two ventricles ("Chambers") of the heart. A Nasal Septum is that fleshy/cartilage divider between your two nostrils.


Who said if you put water or blood into a heart and try to encourage it to go through the septum it does not go?

erasistratus did


How air enter your body?

it goes to ur nasal cavity then go to your larnx to the trachea to the bronchi and air sacs to the lungs :)


Description of nasal cavity?

The nasal cavity is a large air-filled space behind the nose, lined with mucous membranes and cilia that help filter, warm, and moisten air as it passes through. It plays a crucial role in olfaction (sense of smell) and also helps to trap foreign particles, bacteria, and viruses to protect the respiratory system from potential infections.


What is one of the two places where air enters your body?

Air enters through your nose or mouth to your air sacs.


Does a bridge piercing go through the bone or just the skin?

Just the skin. No piercings really go through bone, and the only cartilage piercings are through the ears (not the septum like most people think)It would be very difficult to get a tiny needle through bone. Answer Bridge piercings are just through the skin, septum piericngs can be pierced throught the flesh AND the cartilage. oh and the bridge is made of cartilage.


What order does air go through the respiratory system?

Trachea -> Avleoli -> Brochus -> Bronchioles


Why do you have pain in your septum after it being pierced for a month?

My septum stopped hurting after a week or two. I'd go back to the place it was pierced at and have them take a look.

Can air go through a balloon?

Air cannot go through a normal balloon because the rubber material is impermeable. However, if the balloon has a hole or is porous, air can leak out.


Does a robin breathe with gills?

During the first inspiration, the air travels through the nostrils, also called nares, of a bird, which are located at the junction between the top of the upper beak and the head. The fleshy tissue that surrounds them, in some birds, is called the cere. As in mammals, air moves through the nostrils into the nasal cavity. From there it passes through the larynx and into the trachea. Air moves through the trachea to the syrinx, which is located at the point just before the trachea divides in two. It passes through the syrinx and then the air stream is divided in two as the trachea divides. The air does not go directly to the lung, but instead travels to the caudal (posterior) air sacs. A small amount of air will pass through the caudal air sacs to the lung. During the first expiration, the air is moved from the posterior air sacs through the ventrobronchi and dorsobronchi into the lungs. The bronchi continue to divide into smaller diameter air capillaries. Two kinds of capillaries flow side by side, in opposite directions - the air flowing caudal to cranial and the blood flowing cranial to caudal (in general). This acts as a "countercurrent exchange" mechanism. Blood capillaries flow through the air capillaries and this is where the oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged. When the bird inspires the second time, the air moves to the cranial air sacs. On the second expiration, the air moves out of the cranial air sacs, through the syrinx into the trachea, through the larynx, and finally through the nasal cavity and out of the nostrils.
