Nose and Nasal Cavity

The nose is the outermost organ that comes into direct contact with gas or air to breathe. The
function of the nose is to breathe oxygen (O2) and as a pathway for carbon dioxide (CO2)
release. This organ is located in the skull bones and is composed of cartilage, bone, muscle, and
skin. Inside the nose, there is a nasal cavity that plays an important role in the process of
breathing. The nasal cavity functions to moisturize, warm, and filter (filter) the air that enters the
body.

2. Throat (pharynx)

The throat, or pharynx, is the passageway after we breathe air through the nose. In the throat, the
respiratory organs are followed by the larynx (larynx), trachea and bronchi.

3. Larynx (Larynx)

The larynx, known as the "voice box", is the connection for the pharynx and trachea. In this
section, there are the vocal cords and epiglottis valves, which separate the food channel from the
airway.

4. Trachea

The trachea connects the larynx with the bronchi and becomes a path for air from the neck to the
chest. Shaped like a pipe. Its main function as an airway to enter and exit the lungs. This organ is
composed of cartilage ring and is located in front of the esophagus.

5. Bronchus

Bronchus is a branching of the trachea. This organ has 2 branches to the right and left lungs.
After passing through the bronchi, the branching will be continued by the bronchioles and ends
in the alveoli or air bubbles.

6. Lungs

The lung is a vital respiratory organ that is wrapped in a layer called the pleura. It is located in
the chest cavity above the diaphragm. The shape is similar to a sponge and consists of 2 parts,
namely left and right. The left lung only has 2 segments. While the right lung has 3 segments.
