Does the trachea have nervous tissue

No, the trachea does not have nervous tissue. The trachea, also known as the windpipe, is made up of cartilage, muscle and connective tissue. It is lined with a mucous membrane and ciliated cells that help to move mucus and trapped particles out of the lungs. While the trachea does have nerve endings that can trigger a cough reflex when irritated, it does not contain nervous tissue in the way that the brain or spinal cord does.
