The alveoli and bronchi are both parts of the respiratory tree. The main parts of this structure, in the order of air passing through during inspiration are: trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. The alveoli are distal to the bronchi, because they are farther away from the center of the body then the bronchi.

What is the opposite of proximal?
The term most opposite of proximal is "distal."
Is the ankle distal to the phalanges?
The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.
Which part of bronchial tree is dilated in Bronchiectasis proximal or distal to obstruction?
In bronchiectasis, the dilation of the bronchial tree occurs distal to the obstruction. The obstruction can lead to persistent infection and inflammation, causing irreversible damage and widening of the bronchi.
Is the wrist distal or proximal to the shoulder?
The wrist is distal to the shoulder. The shoulder is proximal to the wrist.
Is the elbow proximal or distal to your fingers?
The hand is distal, because your hand is drawing away from your body. Proximal means closer to the body.Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
Is the head distal or proximal to the shoulders?
Proximal
What is the opposite of distal?
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
Is the foot distal or proximal to the heart?
Distal
Is the shoulder proximal or distal to the wrist?
Proximal vs. distal, is in reference to the Point of attachment to the axial skeleton. So the shoulder is proximal to the wrist, or the wrist is distal to the shoulder. Distal= further away Proximal= closer
Is electrical activity of the heart distal to proximal?
No, electrical activity in the heart moves from proximal to distal.
Are peyer patches in the proximal or distal intestine?
proximal ?
Is hand proximal to the elbow?
No. Proximal means closer to the body. Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
