Cilia are hair-like structures found in cells that help with movement and sensing in organisms. They can help to move fluid or mucus across the cell surface or aid in detecting changes in the cell's environment.
yes
Tiny hairs in the windpipe are called cilia. The cilia help to move mucus and debris out of the respiratory tract to keep the airways clean and prevent infection.
yes the cilia are natural organelles found in the body to help expel mucus and other foreign substances from the respiratory tract
Cilia cells are specialized cells found in the respiratory tract, fallopian tubes, and other parts of the body. They have hair-like structures called cilia that help move mucus, debris, and fluid through the body. Cilia play a crucial role in maintaining the health of these tissues and protecting against infections.
The ciliated epithelium is adapted for movement and protection. The cilia on the cells move in a coordinated manner to help move mucus, debris, and microorganisms out of the respiratory tract. Additionally, the mucus secreted by this epithelium helps to trap pathogens and prevent them from entering the body.
The little hairs in your nose are called cilia. Cilia are used to help keep dirt and dust particles from going into your lungs. when the cilia have collected enough dirt, it mixes with mucus and ends up as mucus excertement (boogers). Make sure to blow you nose often and to not sniff dirt!

The hairs on the trachea are called Cilia and are for helping lifting up the mucus up the throat. Smoking can kill these hairs and they will have to swallow the mucus.=D
Cilia in the air passages help to sweep mucus and foreign particles away from the lungs towards the throat where they can be expelled or swallowed. This action helps to protect the lungs from infections and maintain optimal respiratory function.
Cilia are hair-like structures found on the surface of cells. They help in movement by either propelling fluid or particles past the cell, or by moving the cell itself. In the respiratory tract, cilia help to sweep mucus and debris out of the airways.
They move 'mucus' and are cells that make up a 'mucous' membrane. Mucus is a noun, the thing that is secreted, and mucous is an adjective describing the quality of the thing that makes the mucus.
