•Beta-agonists for asthma -Dilate bronchioles but speed up the heart because both ß1 and ß2 receptors are stimulated -Specific ß2 -agonists just dilate the bronchioles •Salbutamol (Ventolin) is a specific agonist of the ß2 receptor and provides tremendous relief for asthma sufferers.

How small are the bronchioles in your lungs?

What is the two tubes that connect to the trachea and to bronchioles called?
Trachea branches to the mainstem bronchus branches to the lobar bronchi branches to the segmental bronchi to the bronchioles branches to the terminal bronchioles branches to the respiratory bronchioles branches to the the alveolar ducts finally lead to the alveoli.Or... Trachea to Bronchus (Bronchi) to the bronchioles to the alveolar ducts to the alveoli.
What is the name of the tube that connects the larynx to the right and left bronchi?

What airways close during asthma attacks?
