What lines much of the respiratory tract?
Pseudostratified Columnar (ciliated) epithelium lines much of the respiratory tract, but other epithelial tissues are found in the tract as well (for example, simple squamous epithelium in the alveoli of the lungs).
What happens to the bacteria we breathe in does it reach our bloodstream like inhaled nicotine and drugs do?
No. Bacteria have to penetrate our physical barriers. This means our skin (in a cut or wound) or the sticky stuff called mucous found in all body cavities that have an outside outlet. Also found here are chemicals that are antibiotic. These are the respiratory tract, the digestive tract, urinary tract and the reproductive tract. The respiratory tract also has millions of tiny hairs (cilia) that move the mucous up to the throat where it all is swallowed. Very little can live in the stomach which has acid that can burn a hole in a rug. People with COPD have destroyed these hairs and are at risk of respiratory damage. As far as drugs, those chemicals are much smaller than bacteria. Now, viruses can get to the blood stream (remember the cold virus).
How is mucus moved up the respiratory tract?
Mucus, with dirt and pathogens trapped to it, is wafted up the respiratory tract by cilia, which also line our nasal and tracheal passages. This process is comparable to a conveyor belt motion.

What 2 structural features of the tracheal lining function to prevent dirt and other particles from entering the lower respiratory tract?
Mucus and cilia. The dirt and other impurities that enter the respiratory tract are trapped by the mucus, in order not to enter the lungs and its structures. But the accumulation of too much mucus in the trachea would impede us from breathing, so the cilia sweep the mucus out of the trachea.
