VzDeath is correct.  It also helps the water and carbon cycle.  In the water cycle there is something called Transpiration where water is taken in the roots of plants and travels up the stem through capillary action and into the leaves.  THe leaves release the water as a by-product of photosynthesis and to cool its leaves.  With out this capillary action the water cycle wouldn't be so complete.

The c shape of the tracheal cartilages is important because
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: It allows large masses of food to pass through the esophagus when swallowing.

Explanation:

The trachea, or windpipe, is a hollow organ that <u>connects the larynx to the bronchi and allows the passage of air</u> so it can reach the lungs and make the gas exchange possible.

The trachea has cartilages around it to reinforce the tube for protection and to maintain the airway open. The places where there's cartilage are the anterior and the lateral sides of the trachea. This cartilage has the shape of an incomplete ring, or the shape of a C to allow the passage of food. The side that has no cartilage is the posterior side of the trachea, which is the side that is <u>in relation to the esophagus</u> - the part of the gastrointestinal tract that transports the food from the buccal cavity to the stomach.

Which structure allows the spinal nerves to exit from the spinal cord?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Intervertebral foramen

Explanation:

These structures are found in between pairs of vertebrae  and not only do spinal nerves pass through them, the spinal artery, veins, and transforaminal ligaments do too. While the spinal cord passes through the vertebral foramen, the spinal nerves exit and enter the spine through these intervertebral foramen to 'serve' the rest of the body.
