46472. Anatomical terminology. [ edit on Wikidata] The human nose is the first organ of the respiratory system. It is also the principal organ in the olfactory system. The shape of the nose is determined by the nasal bones and the nasal cartilages, including the nasal septum, which separates the nostrils and divides the nasal cavity into two.
A nose is a sensory organ and respiratory structure in vertebrates. It consists of a nasal cavity inside the head, and an external nose on the face. The external nose houses the nostrils, or nares, a pair of tubes providing airflow through the nose for respiration. Where the nostrils pass through the nasal cavity they widen, are known as nasal ...
Nasal cavity. The nasal cavity is a large, air-filled space above and behind the nose in the middle of the face. The nasal septum divides the cavity into two cavities, [ 1] also known as fossae. [ 2] Each cavity is the continuation of one of the two nostrils. The nasal cavity is the uppermost part of the respiratory system and provides the ...
The nasal septum contains bone and hyaline cartilage. [ 3] It is normally about 2 mm thick. [ 4] The nasal septum is composed of four structures: Maxillary bone (the crest) Perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone. Septal nasal cartilage (ie, quandrangular cartilage) Vomer bone. The lowest part of the septum is a narrow strip of bone that projects ...
52745. Anatomical terms of bone. [ edit on Wikidata] The nasal bones are two small oblong bones, varying in size and form in different individuals; they are placed side by side at the middle and upper part of the face and by their junction, form the bridge of the upper one third of the nose . Each has two surfaces and four borders.
Anatomical terminology. [ edit on Wikidata] The nasal cartilages are structures within the nose that provide form and support to the nasal cavity. [1] The nasal cartilages are made up of a flexible material called hyaline cartilage (packed collagen) in the distal portion of the nose. [2] There are five individual cartilages that make up the ...
Nostril. A nostril (or naris / ˈnɛərɪs /, pl.: nares / ˈnɛəriːz /) is either of the two orifices of the nose. They enable the entry and exit of air and other gasses through the nasal cavities. In birds and mammals, they contain branched bones or cartilages called turbinates, whose function is to warm air on inhalation and remove ...
FMA. 265130. Anatomical terminology. [ edit on Wikidata] The respiratory tract is the subdivision of the respiratory system involved with the process of conducting air to the alveoli for the purposes of gas exchange in mammals. [1] The respiratory tract is lined with respiratory epithelium as respiratory mucosa. [2]
