What is the name of the 2 cartilage ringed tubes that carry air from the trachea to the lungs?
The two tubes that carry air from the trachea to the lungs are called bronchial tubesThe bronchial tubes. As these tubes pass through the lungs, they divide into smaller passages called the bronchioles. The bronchioles end in air sacs called alveoli.
What 2 tubes connect to the lungs?
The bronchial tubes connect the trachea and the lungs. Air moves through these tubes into and out of the lungs.
7 passage ways that penetrate the pharynx?
Seven passage ways connected with the pharynx are the larynx, trachea, 2 Eustachian tubes, 2 sinuses and the mouth or buccal cavity.
Does trachea divides into the right and left bronchi?
yes whic are called braonchi
What carries air in and out of the lungs?
Absolutly nothing. Air TRAVELS to your lungs. Nothing makes it go to your lungs.
How many resistors are needed 2 light up 5 leds?
Resistors don't light up LEDs. They're required in a circuit along with LEDs in order to prevent excessive current through the LEDs when the LEDs are forward biased. The correct resistance value depends on the supply voltage and the desired (rated) current through the LEDs, and there's typically one resistor in series with each LED.
What is the lung branches?
The lungs are fed by one tube called the trachea (TRAY kee uh) This tube branches out into different levels of brachea (BRAY kee uh) which go to the two separate lungs.
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
List in order the structures of the respiratory system through which air passes from the outside to the alveolie?
Nasal or oral cavity, pharynx,larynx,trachea. Trachea divides into to parts called primary bronchus. One goes to right lung second to left.Both bronki divide into 10 each. Then each divide into two and again into two and this process of dividing continues for 17 times. So to get the number you do 20*2*2-----17 times.Last you get the bronchioles. Then alveoli starts witch divide 6 time. So 20*2*2---23 times and you get the number of alveoli. Total surface area of alveoli is abot 100 square meters or about 1100 feet.
What are the 2 tubes in the neck of a pig?
Tubes?
What tube brings air into and out of the body?
Bronchi---2 tubes that are off shoots of your trachea. Air travels through the nose and mouth to the trachea then to the bronchi. The left bronchi travels to the left lung and the right bronchi to the right lung. Each bronchi branches off into thousands of smaller branches called bronchioles (30,000 in each lung). At the end of each bronchiole is a special area that leads into clumps of teeny tiny air sacs called alveoli. There are about 600 million alveoli in your lungs.
What holds open the trachea?
Two things hold the trachea open 1. air pressure 2. Cartilidge rings that the trachea is made of catilaginous rings. If a patient has had a tracheostomy and the cannula (the plastic device that keeps the trachea open) is removed, the area is covered with gauze and will close on its own in time.
