What are the bronchials?

The bronchial tubes (or bronchi) are the large tubular structures within the lungs. These carry air into the lungs from the trachea. They branch into smaller tubes called bronchioles, and then to the smallest tubes that contain the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs.

What else can I help you with?

What delivers oxygen to your body?

....the air? As you breathe in, you breathe in oxygen, and it travels down your trachea, where it branches off into your left and right bronchus, and then goes into your bronchials.


What is a bronchospasm?

a spasm of the bronchials...the "medical" definition-a sudden constriction of the muscles in the walls of the bronchioles. It is caused by the release (degranulation) of substances from mast cells or basophils under the influence of anaphylatoxins. It causes difficulty in breathing which can be very mild to severe.


What happens at the very end of the bronchioles when the air reaches the alveoli?

it is tranfered through the alveoli to the red blood cells which Carrie it throughout the human body . when it gets back they remove the CO2 and send it back through the bronchials to be exhaled


What are the small air tubes that lead to the alveoli called?

The small air tubes that lead to the alveoli are called bronchioles. They branch off from the bronchi and continue to subdivide into smaller tubes within the lungs, eventually ending in the alveoli where gas exchange occurs.


What does the bronchi carry?

It creates smaller airwaysIt is where the oxygen is picked up from the blood in the lungs.The bronchi transports the gasses from and to your lungs and it is kind of shaped like a branch.There are two bronchi (tubes) that pass air in and out, each from their own lung to (and from) the trachea (tube), which in turn is connected to your throat.The word 'bronchi' is pronounced bronk-eye .The word 'trachea' is pronounced tray-key-uhWhen you breath in ( inhale) the air enters the lungs through the Bronchi/Bronchus which divides up into smaller airways called BRONCHIOLES, the bronchioles send air into the inside walls of the lungs where the alveolia allow oxygen to be absorbed by the blood cells and oxygenate the blood transfer throughout the bodyso basically the bronchiles send air into the inside walls of the lungs to allow the alveolia to absorbe oxygen and transfer it throughout the bodyoh and the alveolus/alveolia is a air sac that holds the oxygen-_-It's doing the same Thing as everything else in the respiratory.- The bronchial tubes divide and then subdivide. By doing this their walls become thinner and have less and less cartilage. Eventually, they become a tiny group of tubes called bronchioles.well the trachea is the passageway for air and the trachea is subdivided into 10 divisions of bronchi on the left side and 8 on the right (due to fussion of some of the bronchi) these all eventually lead into many primary bronchioles which divide into terminal bronchials which give rise to respiratory bronchioles which divide into alveolar ducts... there are 6 alveolar sacs associated with each alveolar duct and the alveolus is where gas exchange takes place in the lung. so all in all it delivers air to the broncioles which delivers air to the alveouls to allow for gas exchange.
