Answer:

hope it helps..

Step-by-step explanation:

'Motile' (or moving) cilia are found in the lungs, respiratory tract and middle ear. ... These cilia have a rhythmic waving or beating motion. They work, for instance, to keep the airways clear of mucus and dirt, allowing us to breathe easily and without irritation.
