Role of the Respiratory System
- Ensures the body receives necessary energy.
Respiratory Passages
- Nasal Cavity: Includes the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, larynx, trachea, and bronchi.
- Structure: The nasal cavity is lined with a mucous membrane containing capillaries and cleans the inhaled air with cilia.
- Trachea: Part of the respiratory system; reinforced by a cartilaginous skeleton, protecting it.
- Bronchi: Branched structures from the trachea; each branch is reinforced by cartilage.
- Larynx: Part of the respiratory system; forms the upper part of the trachea; consists of cartilages (3 pairs). The thyroid cartilage is prominent in males.
Nasopharynx
- Part of the throat, specifically the upper part found behind the nasal cavity.
- Houses the adenoids (lymphoid tissue).
- Plays a role in air and food passages. It is located on the third part of the adenoid.
