  1. Air is breathed through
    1. Trachea — lungs — larynx — pharynx — alveoli
    2. Nose — larynx — pharynx — bronchus — alveoli — bronchioles
    3. Nostrils — pharynx — larynx — trachea — bronchi — bronchioles — alveoli
    4. Nose — mouth — lungs
Correct Option: C

The pathway of inhaled air is - Nostrils → pharynx (common passage for food & air) → larynx (voice box) → trachea (the wind pipe) → bronchi (2 for each side lungs) → bronchioles (give rise to alveolar ducts) → alveoli (the exchange site for gases in the form of small sacs or pouches).
