What is behind the nasal cavity?
Behind the nasal cavity is the nasopharynx, which is the upper part of the throat that connects the nose to the mouth and the voice box. It plays a role in directing air flow and preventing food from entering the nasal passages.
What is the space between the middle and inferior nasal conchae?
The space between the middle and inferior nasal conchae is known as the inferior meatus. It is a passage for air to flow through the nasal cavity and plays a role in humidifying and filtering the air we breathe.
What is the function of the aveoli duct?
To get inhaled air to the alveoi for gas exchange
What organs does air pass through when it enters your body?
Here's the simplified version: -Nose -Trachea -Bronchi -Broncheoli -Aveoli Here's the more complex one: -Nose -Nasal cavity -Pharynx -Epiglottis -Glottis -Larynx -Trachea -Bronchi -Boncheoli -Aveoli Or the middle version between those: -Nose -Pharynx -Trachea -Bronchi
Which process does not occur in the nasal cavity?
diffusion of air through air sacs
What absorbes oxygen from the air?
the aveoli in the Lungs
Why is mouth breathing in cold temperature detrimental?
Because the nasal passages warm the air passing over them and this warm air facilitates gas exchange in the aveoli plus the warm air does not damage delicate lung tissues as cold air can do.
Is the aveoli an organ?
no cause aveoli are little air sacks in the lungs. they are not an organ they are in an organ.
What is the microscopic air sacs called?
aveoli
Does the air exchange happen in the bronchioles?
no, in the aveoli
What increases air turbulance in the nasal cavity?
Air turbulence in the nasal cavity can be increased by factors such as obstructed nasal passages, smaller nasal airways, or high airflow rates during breathing. These conditions can disrupt the smooth flow of air through the nasal cavity, leading to increased turbulence.
What is the medical term meaning air-filled cavities in the bones around the nose?
The medical term is "paranasal sinuses." These are air-filled cavities located within the bones surrounding the nasal cavity. They are important for natural drainage and humidifying the air we breathe.
Air in aveoli has high concentration of what after inhalation?
oxygen
Can a person be able 2 sleep upright in zero gravity?
No because gravity allows your nasal air passages to flow normally but with none your lungs will not flow air properly lying down
