Answer:

Cartilage rings of trachea have protective role

Explanation:

Trachea is a tube, part of the respiratory system, which allows the passage of the air: from larynx to lungs (primary bronchi). It is enveloped with cartilage rings that prevent collapse of the trachea when there is no air. The cartilage "rings" are C-shaped, except one full ring-shaped - the cricoid cartilage which attaches trachea to the larynx.
