What best describes the function of the trachea?

Answer:
The trachea is what is also known as the windpipe. When you 'suck down air', the oxygen takes the path down the trachea, then the bronchi, then the bronchioles, and the alveoli. When you touch your throat and feel the bumps going down your neck, that is your Trachea. yay! So it contains the air as it goes into the lungs.
