yes, there are two primary bronchi. Each One enters each lungs.

The inferior end of the trachea divides into the left and right what?
The trachea branches into the left and right airways at the carina. These branched airways are called the bronchi.
What is the main bronchi?
The point at which the trachea splits into the right and left mainstem bronchi is called the carina. Hope this helps.
What are the two ssubdivisions of the trachea that enter the lugs?
The main (primary) bronchi. Right and left.
What are the two branches of the trachea?
The wind pipe is called a trachea. It brings air from your mouth down into your lungs. It is a straight tube at the top that separates into two branches, one going into each lung. These are the left bronchus and right bronchus.
When oxygen enters the respiratory system what is the next structure upon leaving the trachea?
bronchi
What is differences between trachea and bronchi?
The trachea, also known as the "windpipe," is the largest tube of the respiratory system. In the adult human it is approximately 5 inches long, and an inch in diameter. It technically begins at the inferior edge of the larynx (aka "voice-box") and continues down toward the lungs. At the inferior end of the trachea it bifurcates, or divides, into two slightly smaller tubes known as bronchi. The primary bronchi each divide into "secondary bronchi." On the right side, the primary bronchus (the term for a single bronchi), divides into a superior and an intermediate bronchus (secondary bronchi) before it enters into the right lung. On the left side, the primary bronchus enters the left lung, then divides into a superior and and inferior bronchus (secondary bronchi.)
Bronchi are split at the?
The Trachea comes down and splits into the 2 Bronchi at the Bifurcation of trachea, at the lowest point in the spit it is called the "carina". The two Bronchi are called the left and right primary bromchi, and then they quickly spit again into secondary bronchi. Hope that helps
What two tubes are divided by the trachea?
After air passes through the larynx, it enters your windpipe, or trachea. The trachea cleans the air again and channels it into the lungs through two large tubes called bronchi. The bronchi divide into smaller tubes and eventually lead to air sacs called alveoli. It is in the alveoli that oxygen moves into your blood and carbon dioxide moves out.
The trachea divides into these right and left branches?
The 'Carina'.
Where does the bronchi start in the body and trachea end?
The Bronchi starts just after the trachea turns left ore right
Does the primary bronchi carry air toward each lung?
Yes a primary bronchus carries air toward each lung. After reaching the lungs, the primary bronchi branch off into secondary bronchi which carry the air to the lobes of the lungs, three on the right and two on the left.
Branches of trachea?
The branches of trachea include: the right main bronchus and the left main bronchus. The trachea begins immediately below the larynx.
