The airway is the part of the anatomy that allows air to flow into and out of the lungs. The nose and mouth form both the entryways and exits for air flow. After inhaling, air flows past the back of the throat, or pharynx. It then flows past the voice box, or larynx. Air then ...
The cancerous presence in the windpipe, larynx or throat can also result in the appearance of blood in mucus. When you experience the problem, you may observe symptoms like Swelling A sore that never heals completely Red or white patch in the mouth ...
since making this figure 20 years ago, I’ve learned that the abdominal air sacs of ostriches are actually rather small, although the perirenal, femoral, and subcutaneous diverticula of the abdominal air sacs are extensive; see Bezuidenhout et al. 1999). Wedel and Cifelli...
