11 - Respiratory System

Front 1

Serves as air passageway; warms and moistens inhaled air; its cilia and mucous membrane trap dust, pollen, bacteria, and other foreign matter

Back 1

Nose

Front 2

Serves as a passageway for air and food; aids in phonation by changing its shape

Back 2

Pharynx

Front 3

Produces vocal sounds

Back 3

Larynx

Front 4

Provides an open passageway for air to the lungs
