The nasal passage on each side of the inside of your nose is also known as the nasal cavity. This is the part of the respiratory system where air is warmed, filtered, and humidified before reaching the lungs.

Most nasal passages have how many turbinates present on the lateral wall of each nasal cavity?

There are usually three turbinates present on the lateral wall of each nasal cavity - the superior, middle, and inferior turbinates. These bony structures help to humidify, filter, and warm the air as it passes through the nasal passages.


Colds are almost always transmitted by?

The 'Common Cold' is transmitted by sneezing, coughing, etc.. For example.. Someone sneezes in a lift, viruses and sprayed out at an estimated speed of 40mph. Each virus has to find another target to attack before they are destroyed. The viruses travel through the nasal passage. The lining inside the nasal passage destroys most of the particles but one or two may escape. The single virus that may have escaped, has to trick the body in several different ways. The final and most important trick the virus has to achieve, is to trick the cell wall by pretending it is protein or a good particle. The cell wall lets the virus through, then the virus creates hundreds more virus particles creating influenza B. There are only two cells in which can cure the virus upon thousands in the body. The body has to find those two cells in order to destroy the virus particles. Hope that helps.. x

What are nasal turbinates?

The nasal cavity is occupied to a large extent by nasal conchae. These are turbinate bones which project into the nasal cavity with the purpose of supporting the olfactory mucus membranes and increasing the respiratory surface area and they creating turbulence as air passes through.There are three turbinates (inferior, middle and superior) on each side of the nose, and their job is to clean and humidify the air as it moves through your nose into your lungs.


Has 2 turbinates as part of its structure?

The nasal cavity has structures called turbinates, also known as nasal conchae, that help to humidify and filter the air we breathe. There are three pairs of turbinates in the nasal cavity: superior, middle, and inferior. Each pair of turbinates helps to increase the surface area in the nasal cavity, allowing for more efficient warming, humidifying, and filtering of the air.


What is turbinate coblation?

you have three turbinates in each side of your nose. They are like fingers. Their job is to moisten the air, and add some resistance to your nasal breathing. Coblation involves puncturing the lower of these with a coblater wand (small pointed instrument) it then destroys some of the tissue inside the turbinate creating a pocket that eventually collapses resulting in effectively a smaller turbinate. This means when you have allergies, cold, or what have you, they won't swell up as much reducing the likelyhood of having a stopped up nose. Most people think when their nose is stuffy it is due to it being full of junk. Actually, it is the turbinate swelling up and restricting the nasal passage which gives you that stopped up feeling.
