Pathway of Air in the Human Body
When we breathe, air follows this path:
- Nose/Nasal Cavity – Air enters, gets filtered, warmed, and moistened.
- Pharynx (Throat) – A passage for both air and food.
- Larynx (Voice Box) – Directs air and prevents food from entering the windpipe.
- Trachea (Windpipe) – A tube that carries air to the lungs.
- Bronchi – Trachea splits into two tubes, one for each lung.
- Bronchioles – Smaller branches inside the lungs.
- Alveoli (Air Sacs) – Tiny sacs where oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide is removed.
This cycle repeats with every breath, helping us get oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.
