Our nose helps us to breathe in ____
A
air
B
oxygen
C
carbon dioxide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Your nose is part of your respiratory system. It allows air to enter your body, then filters debris and warms and moistens the air. Your nose gives you a sense of smell and helps shape your appearance. Many common symptoms affect your nose, such as a stuffy nose and nosebleed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your nose warms and moisturizes the air you breathe in. This brings the air you inhale to body temperature, making it easier for your lungs to use. Produce nitric oxide. During nasal breathing, your nose releases nitric oxide (NO).

Detailed explanation-3: -We are designed to breathe oxygen through our nose and spread it accordingly in our lungs and bloodstream. Unlike the mouth, it acts as a filtration system for foreign bodies and viruses. The whole respiratory system also responds to the air from the nose differently.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nose helps us to inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide and thus helps us in breathing. It is a sense organ too and we are able to smell through it.

Detailed explanation-5: -When you inhale air through your nostrils, the air enters the nasal passages and travels into your nasal cavity. The air then passes down the back of your throat into the trachea (say: TRAY-kee-uh), or windpipe, on its way to the lungs. Your nose is also a two-way street.
