What else can I help you with?
What are the smaller tubes that branch from the left and right bronchi?
bronchioles
What do air tubes do in the respiratory system?
Starting from the left and right bronchi, bronchus for singular, these branch down from the trachea. Then the bronchi branch off to smaller bronchi and these branch off to bronchioles. The bronchioles contain air sacs at the end called alveoli and alveolus for singular.
Which organ contains alveoli bronchioles and bronchi?
The lungs contain alveoli, bronchioles, and bronchi. Alveoli are tiny air sacs where oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the blood. Bronchioles are small airways that branch from bronchi, which are larger airways that lead to the lungs.
Branches of the windpipe that lead into the lungs are the?
Bronchi (left and right Bronchus), which then branch into the bronchioles.
Is the bronchi branch into smaller tubes called cilia?
By I only ought be able skills and tomorrow morning to be able skills
What are the large airways that branch off the trachea?
The large airways that branch off the trachea are the mainstem bronchi. These branch into progressively smaller bronchioles.
Where is the location of bronchioles?
Bronchioles are located in the lungs and are part of the respiratory system. They are smaller airways that branch off from the bronchi and carry air to the alveoli for gas exchange.
What are the small air tubes that lead to the alveoli called?
The small air tubes that lead to the alveoli are called bronchioles. They branch off from the bronchi and continue to subdivide into smaller tubes within the lungs, eventually ending in the alveoli where gas exchange occurs.
In what structures does the trachea branch?
The right and left main bronchus (which supply air to the right and left lung).
What are the 3 types of bronchioles?
The three types of bronchioles are terminal bronchioles, respiratory bronchioles, and conducting bronchioles. Terminal bronchioles are the smallest airways in the respiratory system that lead to the respiratory bronchioles where gas exchange occurs. Conducting bronchioles are larger airways that branch off the main bronchi and help to conduct air to the smaller bronchioles.
Where does the trachea lead to?
The trachea, also known as the windpipe, leads to the bronchi, which then branch off into smaller bronchioles in the lungs. The trachea is responsible for carrying air to and from the lungs for breathing.
How are alveoli and bronchi related?
Bronchioles are part of the respiratory system and branch from the bronchus. Air from the bronchus enters the terminal bronchioles that terminate in air sacs known as alveoli.
