Explanation / Answer

24. The humidification of the air occurs when it passes through nasal passages which include all the above.

26. The effect of turbulence when it passes through vestibule and nasal chamber would be it promotes air filtration and allows extra time for warming and humidifying incoming air.

27. The hard palate is the separation between the nasal and oral cavities.

41. Glottis functions to protect from dehydration by filtering water out of the air, providing an extensive surface area for gas exchange, moving air to and from the exchange surfaces and production of sound.

42. Intrinsic laryngeal muscles regulate tension in the vocal folds and open and close the glottis.
