What else can I help you with?
What is the airway from the mouth to the lungs?
The Windpipe, also known as the trachea, is the airway from the mouth to the lungs.
What is in the upper airway?
The nose, pharynx, and trachea are the parts of the upper airway. The tubes of the lungs comprise the lower airway.
How is air carried into the lungs?
from nose through airway in throat into lungs
Which organ is an airway?
The trachea is the primary airway in the respiratory system, connecting the larynx to the bronchi. It is responsible for carrying air to and from the lungs during breathing.
What is The airway from mouth to lungs in a fetal pig?
Trachea
What covers the airway to the lungs to prevent anything other than air from going into your lungs?
Epiglottis
Is Bronchoplasty a surgery to restore the airway tubes to the lungs?
YES
What is the purpose of cilia in the airway?
Airway motile cilia move mucus out of the lungs, and mucus traps inhaled particulate, smoke and dust.
What Chemical Warfare Agent (CWA) primarily attacks the airway and lungs causing irritation of the entire airway from the nose to the lungs resulting in what is commonly known as dry-land drowning?
Two examples are chlorine and phosgene.
What is bronci?
bronchi is a passage of airway in the respiratory tract that conducts air into the lungs.
What structures are not found in the upper airway?
Structures not found in the upper airway include the trachea, bronchi, and alveoli, which are part of the lower airway. The upper airway primarily consists of the nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx. Additionally, structures such as the lungs and diaphragmatic muscles are also absent from the upper airway.
Does the tracheoscopy tube go into the lungs?
No, a tracheostomy tube does not go directly into the lungs; instead, it is inserted into the trachea (the windpipe) to create an airway. The tube allows for breathing and can help bypass obstructions in the upper airway. It provides a direct pathway for air to enter the lungs, but it does not extend into the lung tissue itself.
