- Gas exchange (moisturizing, filtration and warming of air also included)
- Phonation
- Olfaction
Respiratory division
- Upper respiratory track
- Lower respiratory track
External nose
Lined by skin
Nostrils
Bony framework (two nasal bones, frontal processes of maxillary bone and nasal part of frontal bone)
Cartilaginous framework (minor and major alar cartilages)
Muscles (procerus, nasalis, dilatator nasi anterior and the depressor septi)
Vascular supply: facial, ophthalmic and infraorbital
