Transportation of Airways
Transport of Airways refers to the movement of air through the respiratory system, from the nose and mouth down to the lungs. It involves a series of passageways, including the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and smaller bronchioles. These airways serve as conduits, directing inhaled air toward the lungs for oxygen exchange and carrying exhaled air out. The structure of these passageways ensures efficient airflow, proper filtration, and protection against foreign particles, supporting overall respiratory health and effective gas exchange essential for bodily functions.
