Description

A nose is a protuberance in vertebrates that houses the nostrils, or nares, which receive and expel air for respiration alongside the mouth. Behind the nose are the olfactory mucosa and the sinuses. Behind the nasal cavity, air next passes through the pharynx, shared with the digestive system, and then into the rest of the respiratory system. In humans, the nose is located centrally on the face and serves as an alternative respiratory passage especially during suckling for infants. The protruding nose that is completely separate from the mouth part is a characteristic found only in therian mammals. It has been theorized that this unique mammalian nose evolved from the anterior part of the upper jaw of the reptilian-like ancestors (synapsids).

नाक रीढ़धारी प्राणियों में पाया जाने वाला छिद्र है। इससे हवा शरीर में प्रवेश करती है जिसका उपयोग श्वसन क्रिया में होता है। नाक द्वारा सूँघकर किसी वस्तु की सुगंध को ज्ञात किया जा सकता है।
