    The respiratory system consists of the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. The nose contains hairs and mucus that warm and filter air before it reaches the pharynx. The pharynx then directs air to either the esophagus for swallowing or the larynx and trachea for breathing. The lungs contain bronchioles and alveoli that oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide through gas exchange.
