Breathing
The nasal passages allow air to flow in and out during normal breathing. As a person
inhales, the nose warms and humidifies the air before it gets to the lungs. The lining inthe nose has many blood vessels at the surface. The warm blood flowing through the nosehelps warm the air.
Cleansing
The nose has many small hairs inside the nostrils. These hairs serve to filter the air andremove dirt and particles before they enter the lungs. Sneezing and nose blowing helpremove the particles out of the body.
Smell
Smell is one of the most important functions of the nose. The sense of smell is notcompletely understood. The importance of smell is known and is a key component formemories, physical attraction and emotional connections, according to the "Ear, Noseand Throat" magazine. The olfactory nerves are pairs of cranial nerves that connect thenose to the brain and assist in perceives and interpreting smells. Conditions, such as acold, will decrease the sense of smell. Some people suffer from a condition calledanosmia, which is the inability to smell.
