Warms, moisturizes (to a degree) and filters the air coming into your lungs. the small hairs and mucus filter out particulate

you take in much less air through the nose than through your mouth.  try pinching your nostrils, and breathing through a straw (this is an exaggeration of the case, but still valid).

Is that what you are talking about?  Does it work?  Hell yes.  It is great for cycling and running.

Breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth is for controlling your breathing. It prevents hyperventalation when doing strenous cardiovascular activity.
