What else can I help you with?
What does the windpipe do in your body?
The windpipe filters the air we breathe and branches into the bronchi.
What is the path when you take a breathe in?
It goes down your larynx, into the bronchial, then bronchi, then the aveoli.
Is atelectasis when the lung fails to expand because air cannot pass beyond the bronchioles that are blocked by secretions?
Atelectasis is the collapse of part or all of a lung by blockage of the air passages or by very shallow breathing(atel means incomplete, and-ectasis means stretching or enlargement)COPD - Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseasesis a lung disease in which it is hard to breath. In this condition, damage to the bronchi partially obstructs them, making it difficult to get air in and out.
How does the bronchi function in the human body?
they help catch all the dust and stuff so you can breathe puurfect
How do bronchi work?
bronchi work by the lungs because they breath in and out and they make you breath
What organs help up breathe?
nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchi, lungs I think this is all
Work of breathing?
Once you breathe in oxygen through your nose, it travels through the trachea, then to the bronchi. The bronchi helps to get oxygen to your lungs. After the air passes through the bronchi, it travels through the bronchioles which are smaller tubes than the bronchi which are bigger tubes than the bronchioles. From the bronchioles air goes to the alveoli. Then it travels back out through the bronchioles, then through the bronchi until the carbon dioxide waste is out of your system. Hope i helped :)
When your bronchi become swollen and it becomes difficult to breathe you probably have to?
go to the hospital cause you're probally having an asthma attack.
Are the alveoli distal or proximal to the bronchi?
The alveoli and bronchi are both parts of the respiratory tree. The main parts of this structure, in the order of air passing through during inspiration are: trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. The alveoli are distal to the bronchi, because they are farther away from the center of the body then the bronchi.
What are the two branches of the windpipe called?
The bronchi. In order for where the air travels when you breathe in: 1. Nose 2.Trachea 3. Bronchi 4. Bronchioles 5. Aveoli There's a whole bunch of smaller parts on the way, but those are the main parts.
What is dome shaped muscle below your lungs and helps you breathe?
The dome shaped muscle that works with the lungs is the diaphragm.
What effect does smoking have on the respiratory system?
it damages the bronchitis tubes narrowing them which makes it hard for you to breath
