• All of these answers are correct

Which is the correct pathway that air travels through the respiratory system?

• Mouth, pharynx, trachea, bronchi, alveoli, larynx, bronchioles, bloodstream

• Bloodstream, pharynx, alveoli, trachea, bronchioles, bronchi, mouth, larynx

• Mouth, larynx, pharynx, trachea, bronchioles, bronchi, alveoli, bloodstream

• Mouth, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, bloodstream

The purpose of the cartilage rings around the trachea is primarily

• Protection

• Transport

• Evaporation

• Absorption

Vocal cords are stretched across this opening

• Pharynx

• Larynx

• Trachea

• Nose
