Structure and function of the airway?

The airway of the respiratory system is mainly to do with the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and the alveoli duct. Trachea composes of Pseudostratified columnar, ciliated epithelium, Goblet cells, Sero-mucous glands and Cartilage rings. Its main function is to allow air to pass and reach the bronchioles and to trap dust by the presence of the cilia lining its epithelium membrane. The bronchi is composed of Pseudostratified columnar, ciliated epithelium (shorter), Goblet cells (fewer), Sero-mucous glands, Cartilage, Smooth muscle. main function is to bring air into the lungs because their walls are too thick to permit gass exchange. The bronchioles is made up of Simple columnar or cuboidal & ciliated epithelium,No goblet cells,Smooth muscle (relatively abundant), Clara cells is to permit the movement of gas int the alveoli duct in-order for gaseous exchange to take place.
