Air moves from the outside into the lungs through?
The air moves from the outside into the lungs through the windpipe.
What is the nature of speech communication?

What order does air move through the human respiratory system when a person inhales?
Air moves through the nostrils or mouth, then passes through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and finally into the alveoli of the lungs where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide.
Why do larynx move with deglutition?
The larynx moves during the swallowing process, or deglutition, to protect the airway from food and liquid entering the lungs. This movement helps to close off the entrance to the trachea (windpipe) by raising the larynx and epiglottis, preventing aspiration of food or liquid into the respiratory system.
What 2 tubes connect to the lungs?
The bronchial tubes connect the trachea and the lungs. Air moves through these tubes into and out of the lungs.
Is the larynx involved in the swallowing reflex?
Yes, the larynx is involved in the swallowing reflex. During swallowing, the larynx moves upwards and the epiglottis covers the opening of the trachea to prevent food from entering the lungs. This helps to route the food or liquid into the esophagus.
When blood moves from the lungs to the heart it is now?
Blood is de-oxygenated when it it pumped into the lungs, and after going through the lungs, is now oxygenated.
Sits a-top the trachea and moves muscles to change the shape of vocal cords?
The larynx
Oxygen moves from the lungs into the blood via?
through respiratory membrane via diffusion
During inhalation air moves from the larynx directly to the what?
Trachea
What organ does the oxygen move into?
Oxygen moves into the lungs where it is absorbed into the bloodstream through tiny air sacs called alveoli.
