What is "inferior meatus"?
The inferior meatus is a key anatomical feature located in the lower region of the nasal cavity. It plays a crucial role in the respiratory process by facilitating the passage of air and regulating its quality. The inferior meatus is responsible for filtering, moisturizing, and warming the inhaled air, ensuring that it reaches the lungs in an optimal condition. Additionally, it serves as a conduit for the drainage of excess mucus and helps maintain the overall health and functionality of the respiratory system.
