Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The air we inhale enters our body through our nostrils. It then passes through the nasal cavity, the pharynx, the larynx and finally enters the windpipe, also known as the trachea. The trachea branches into bronchi which sends air into both the lungs.

Detailed explanation-2: -When you inhale through your nose or mouth, air travels down your pharynx (back of your throat), passes through your larynx (voice box) and into your trachea (windpipe). Your trachea is divided into two air passages called bronchial tubes. One bronchial tube leads to your left lung, the other to your right lung.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct sequence of the air passage in man is Nasal cavity → pharynx→larynx→trachea→bronchi→bronchioles→alveoli.
