4. It's to accomodate your head to changes in air pressure.
Otherwise, your eyes would be damaged by pressure changes. Our sinuses do not work well at all. The reason is because they, along with the rest of our bodies, were originally evolved to function as horizontal, four-footed critters. Our sinuses changed when we went to two feet, but not enought to function well. That is one of the examples that demonstrates that there is no design in evolution.
