Answer 1

The organs from the list that facilitate the process of breathing in the body are:

• Trachea: This is the airway that carries air to and from the lungs.

• Diaphragm: This is a muscle that plays a crucial role in the breathing process by contracting and relaxing to help draw air into the lungs.

The other options (heart, esophagus, arteries, pancreas) do not directly facilitate breathing.
