Shelf-like structures found in the nasal cavity are known as nasal turbinates or conchae. These bony structures are covered with mucous membranes and serve to humidify, warm, and filter the air as it passes through the nasal passages. Turbinates also help to increase the surface area within the nasal cavity, enhancing olfactory functions and aiding in respiratory efficiency. There are typically three pairs of turbinates: superior, middle, and inferior.
What else can I help you with?
Do you have tonsils by your nose cavity?
No they are at the back of your throat, your adenoids are at the back of your nasal cavity.
Where is the nasal conchea?
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).
What structures warm moisten filter air?
Nasal cavity mucosa... as air passes thru the nasal cavity, it's warmed, moistened, and filtered by the nasal cavity mucosa. The air that flows directly beneath the superior part of the nasal cavity may stimulate the olfactory receptors in the mucosa region.

What is the difference between the bony nasal cavity and the 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.
