What are the names of the two paths that lead to the throat?
The two paths that lead to the throat are the trachea, which carries air to the lungs, and the esophagus, which carries food to the stomach.
Which part of the respiratory system is the spongy organ that takes in air through the trachea?
The spongy organ in the respiratory system that takes in air through the trachea is the lungs. The trachea branches into smaller tubes called bronchi, which further divide into bronchioles that lead to air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs.
What are the names of the two paths in the throat and where do they lead?
The two main paths in the throat are the esophagus and the trachea. The esophagus leads to the stomach, allowing food to be transported for digestion, while the trachea leads to the lungs, allowing air to pass in and out for breathing.
A 12-cm tube located below the larynx is the?
That tube is the trachea.
What is the tube held open by rings of cartilage lined with cilia and mucous membrane?
The tube is known as the trachea, or windpipe. It serves as a passageway for air to travel in and out of the lungs. The rings of cartilage help keep the trachea open, while the cilia and mucous membrane function to trap and remove any foreign particles or debris from the air before it reaches the lungs.
What does the trachea lead to?
trachea leads to the lungs
What is the main branch from the trachea?
The main branches from the trachea are the bronchi (bronchus is a singular one). These also lead to bronchioles, which lead to aveoli in the lungs.
What tube lead up to the stomach?
trachea
What are large passageways in the chest that lead into the lungs?
The bronchial tubes connect the trachea (breathing tube) to the lungs.
What are trachea and bronchi?
the trachea is air passage tube that allows air to enter your lungs. the bronchi are two little tubes that are connected to the end of your trachea and lead to the lungs.
What is blockage due to narrowing of the bronchi that lead from the trachea to the lungs?
Bronchoconstriction
What is the name of the tubes that lead to your lungs?
The trachea, which feeds into the bronchial tubes.
What do the esophagus and trachea lead into in the fetal pig?
In the fetal pig, the esophageal opening is located dorsal to the glottis. The esophagus lies to the top of the stomach, in close proximity to the diaphragm.
If a tumor in the trachea is removed that was decreasing the trachea's diameter by half the area of the trachea's cross section and the flow of air through it would what?
The removal of the tumor would effectively restore the trachea's diameter and consequently increase the area of its cross section. This would lead to an improvement in the flow of air through the trachea due to reduced obstruction.
How does pneumonia affect the pharynx?
Pneumonia generally leads to an inflammation of the trachea. Because Pneumonia can affect the respiratory system, it may lead to increased phlegm or fluid in the trachea.
What is a bifurcated trachea?
A bifurcated trachea is a rare congenital condition where the trachea divides into two separate passages, resembling a "Y" shape instead of the normal single tube. This can lead to breathing difficulties and may require surgical intervention to correct.
What are the two branches of windpipe?
The two branches of the trachea (windpipe) are the left bronchus and the right bronchus. The bronchi lead into each lung, and are a part of the respiratory system.
