Once you breathe in oxygen through your nose, it travels through the trachea, then to the bronchi. The bronchi helps to get oxygen to your lungs. After the air passes through the bronchi, it travels through the bronchioles which are smaller tubes than the bronchi which are bigger tubes than the bronchioles. From the bronchioles air goes to the alveoli. Then it travels back out through the bronchioles, then through the bronchi until the carbon dioxide waste is out of your system. Hope i helped :)

What is airway resistance and how does it affect work of breathing?

Airway resistance refers to the obstruction or restriction of airflow in the respiratory passages. Increased airway resistance makes it harder for air to flow in and out of the lungs, requiring more effort and energy during breathing. This results in an increased work of breathing as the respiratory muscles have to work harder to overcome the resistance and maintain adequate ventilation.
