Tubes that carry air form trachea to lungs?
bronchi (singular bronchus) --Allison
What sucks in air to pass through the bronchi?
The lungs expand drawing in air through the mouth or the nose.
What structures does air pass through as it travels to the lungs?
The nose, pharynx, trachea, and bronchi.
Which organ carries air from your nose and mouth to your lungs?
pharynx . . . Laryx. . . Trachea . . . Bronchi . . Lobar bronchi. . . Segmentel bronchi. . Bronchioles . . Terminal bronchioles.. . Respiratory bronchioles. . Alveolar duct .. . Alveoli
When the air flows into the lungs is the air cooled?
No. It is warmed to near body temperature as it passes through the nose, throat, and bronchi.
Air entering your body goes from the mouth and nose through the what and into the trachea?
the nasal passage
What organ carries air from your nose and mouth to your lungs?
Air passes from the environment into the nose/mouth, through the nasopharynx and oropharynx, into the glottis, trachea, bronchi and its bifurcations, and into the alveoli of the lungs.
Path of air?
There are many different paths of air. They are the nose, nasa conchae, pharynx, glottis, larynx, trachea, primary bronchi, secondary bronchi, tertiary bronchi, bronchioles, terminal bronchioles, respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alceolar sacs, and alveoli.
What is the entry to the respiratory system called?
The upper respiratory system (where air enters and exits the body) is composed of the nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx. The lower respiratory system (where the air moves to be processed) consists of the trachea, the bronchi, and the lungs. So the answer is either the nose and mouth, or the trachea, depending on how you meant the question.
What are one of two places where air enters your body?
Two air passages which allow air to enter the body are the cilia and aveoli !!!
What two tubes are divided by the trachea?
After air passes through the larynx, it enters your windpipe, or trachea. The trachea cleans the air again and channels it into the lungs through two large tubes called bronchi. The bronchi divide into smaller tubes and eventually lead to air sacs called alveoli. It is in the alveoli that oxygen moves into your blood and carbon dioxide moves out.
What structures hold the air passages open in the windpipe and bronchi?
nose traps some of the dust particles
