Question

A) are concerned with gas exchange.
B) are located in the upper respiratory tract.
C) contain gustatory organs.
D) are parts of the bronchial tree.

Accepted Answer

The nares (nostrils) and nasal septum are located in the upper respiratory tract, specifically in the nasal cavity. They are responsible for filtering, warming, and humidifying the air as it enters the body. They are not part of the bronchial tree, which is located in the lower respiratory tract. There are no gustatory organs located in the nares or nasal septum, as these organs are responsible for taste and are located in the mouth.
