I think air is filtered in the bronchus
The right bronchus is responsible for conducting air from the trachea into the right lung. It is wider and shorter than the left bronchus, which allows for efficient airflow. Its structure facilitates the entry of air into the three lobes of the right lung, aiding in gas exchange during respiration. Additionally, the right bronchus serves as a pathway for foreign particles to be filtered out by the lung's defense mechanisms.
bronchus diverges from the windpipe. bronchus enters lung and provides air passage.
Bronchus refers to one of the branches (air passages) of trachea that go into the lungs.
It goes: trachea Mainstem Bronchus lobar bronchus segmental bronchus bronchiole Alveolar duct Aveolus
"Lobar bronchus" literally means a bronchus that supplies a lobe of the lung. It is a branch of the main bronchus that further divides into smaller bronchi to provide air to specific lung lobes.
The function of cartilage in the bronchus is to hold the soft tissue open so that air may pass through. The cartilage in the bronchus are C-shaped rings.
The third portion of the bronchus is called the tertiary bronchus, also known as a segmental bronchus. It branches off from the secondary bronchus and further divides into smaller bronchioles, supplying air to specific segments of the lungs. Each tertiary bronchus corresponds to a bronchopulmonary segment, which is a functional unit of the lung.
the bronchi
The Bronchus is the part of the airway that puts air into the lungs. There are two of them and they divide into many bronchioles which are then further subdivided into alveolar ducts to take the air into the lungs themselves.
bronchi (singular bronchus) --Allison
Air passage to & from the right lung.
these are the pipes by which oxygen enters the lungs and co2 exits
