Discuss the pathway of air from inhaling to exhaling. The journey of the breath begins when the air is drawn into the nostrils (sometimes the mouth) The motion of taking a breath is made possible by the diaphragm. The diaphragm contracts, which causes a vacuum in the thoracic cavity. The air is pulled into the nostrils and continues its journey by being drawn through the nasopharynx, the oral pharynx and into the glottis. As the vacuum created by the diaphragm continues, the air is pulled into
