Question

I need help with this question. I don't understand it

Answer 1

Hi there. When you breathe air in (inspired air), it needs to be humidified and warmed before it hits your lungs. There are structures in your nose and sinuses that act to warm and moisten the air. Is there any mention of this in your lecture notes and/or text book?
