HUMANS
Nares are the medical name for the nostrils.
The nostrils of a human serve to give us a faster pathway to our air supply, and they also hold hairs sometimes called vibrissae that catch dirt and germs so that they don't get into our bodies.

The paired nostril openings (nares) connect to a frog's mouth, so that when on the surface the frog can breathe in air and "swallow" it to the respiratory system. Underwater, frogs take in oxygen through their skin, which is why they avoid stagnant, de-oxygenated water.

External nares are openings in the nostrils that allow air to enter the respiratory system during breathing. They also help filter and humidify the air before it reaches the lungs. Additionally, external nares play a role in the olfaction process by allowing smell molecules to enter the nasal cavity for detection.
The plural form of "nares" is "nares". The word "nares" is already considered plural, referring to the nostrils or nasal openings.
Internal nares, also known as choanae, help in connecting the nasal cavity to the throat, allowing for the passage of air between the two regions. This connection is essential for functions such as breathing, smelling, and tasting.
