The trachea divides into these right and left branches?
The 'Carina'.
What is the word for the definition the trachea divides into these right and left branches?
Bronchi
Where is the anatomical division of the airway passages into the right and left lungs?
The trachea divides into the right and left bronchi at the carina.
What is differences between trachea and bronchi?
The trachea, also known as the "windpipe," is the largest tube of the respiratory system. In the adult human it is approximately 5 inches long, and an inch in diameter. It technically begins at the inferior edge of the larynx (aka "voice-box") and continues down toward the lungs. At the inferior end of the trachea it bifurcates, or divides, into two slightly smaller tubes known as bronchi. The primary bronchi each divide into "secondary bronchi." On the right side, the primary bronchus (the term for a single bronchi), divides into a superior and an intermediate bronchus (secondary bronchi) before it enters into the right lung. On the left side, the primary bronchus enters the left lung, then divides into a superior and and inferior bronchus (secondary bronchi.)
What is the large airway branches off of the trachea?
The large airway branches off of the trachea are known as the primary bronchi. The trachea divides into the right and left primary bronchi, which lead to the right and left lungs, respectively. Each primary bronchus further divides into secondary (lobar) bronchi, which supply the lobes of the lungs. The right primary bronchus is typically wider and more vertically oriented than the left, reflecting the anatomy of the lungs.
What structure divides the thoracic cavity into right and left hemithorax?
The mediastinum is the structure that divides the thoracic cavity into right and left hemithorax. It contains the heart, major blood vessels, esophagus, trachea, and other structures.
Where does the trachea divide into smaller airways?
the space where the trachea divides is called the "tracheal bifurcation". This is the place in the treacha where it divides into the 2 broncholes that go into the right and left lung. They further divide in to the broncholies and then into aveolary ducts and finally into the arveoli sacs where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs.
What divides the right and the left chambers of the heart?
The atrial septum divides the left and right atria of the heart. The intraventricular septum divides the left and right ventricles of the heart.
Plane that divides the body into superior and inferior aspects is called what?
The plane that divides the body into superior and inferior aspects is called the transverse plane, also known as the horizontal plane. This plane runs horizontally from left to right, creating upper and lower portions of the body when applied.
Plane that divides the body into left and right halves?
The sagittal plane divides the body into right and left halves.
The trachea is ANTERIOR to the spinal cord?
No, the trachea and the spinal cord run parallel from about the base of the skull to the lungs. The spinal cord is superior to (above) the trachea, that means the spinal cord lies dorsally to the trachea. You could also say that the trachea is inferior to the spinal cord.When you are doing body directions on a human, you have to lay the human on his belly. Anterior is towards the head; Posterior, towards the tail end. If you are a surgeon, then left and right are your left and right while facing the patient.
