The nasal septum divides the larger cavity into 2 cavities. Some people have a problem when this is not formed the way it should be. It is then called a deviated septum.
The nasopahrynx is the cavity behind the nose.
The larynx is the upper part of the trachea containing the vocal cords. The pharynx is the passage that leads from the cavities of the nose and mouth to the larynx and esophagus.
Mucous Membranes is wrong... it is actually Serous Membranes - because they line the sealed, internal subdivisions of the ventral body cavity - cavities that are not open to the exterior. Face! In responce to whoever wrote what is above the question asks what membrane composed of epithelial tissue line cavities that OPEN to the OUTSIDE. It is the mucous membranes for following reasons: body membranes are formed by epithelial tissue and have an underlying layer of connective tissue. mucous membranes produce mucous that lubricates organs, trap dirt and debris, and keeps cavities from drying out. Mucous membranes line cavities that open out to the exterior, such as the nose, mouth, respirtory tract and anus. Serous membranes can be found lining the body cavities that do NOT open to the exterior.
Nasal sinuses are air-filled cavities within the bones of the face and skull that are connected to the nasal cavity. They help to humidify and filter the air we breathe, as well as lighten the weight of the skull. The main sinuses include the frontal sinuses, ethmoid sinuses, sphenoid sinuses, and maxillary sinuses.
The nose and mouth meets at its individual cavities, in this case its the nasal cavities and the oral cavities meeting at the pharynx.
In a fetal pig, the function of the nasopharynx is to connect the oral and nasal cavities. It is located in the upper throat, behind the nose.
Snot is mucus created in the sinus cavities of the nose.

The nostrils serves as the entrance to your nasal cavities. After air has reached the nasal cavity, it will continue to the lungs.
Brown nasal discharge can be a sign that there is bleeding in the nose or sinuses. Which are hollow cavities in the nose. A brown nasal discharge is not normal.
Yes, the nose and eyes are connected through the nasolacrimal duct, which allows tears from the eyes to drain into the nasal cavity. This is why your nose might run when you cry or have watery eyes.
The nasopharynx is the space behind the nose.
The hollow space behind the nose is called the hot dog sinus
A clogged nose is when a person has a cold or a sinus infection and mucus has the nose cavities filled. It is best to keep the nose blown clean to allow air to move through.
The nostrils lead to two nasal cavities inside the nose. These cavities are lined with mucous membranes that help to filter, warm, and moisten the air that we breathe in. They also house olfactory receptors responsible for our sense of smell.
