The lungs are fed by one tube called the trachea (TRAY kee uh)
This tube branches out into different levels of brachea (BRAY kee uh) which go to the two separate lungs.
one of the branches is left bronchi which go into the left lung and other right bronchi go into the right lung
lung tissue has what consistency?
the left and right bronchi
The branches of trachea include: the right main bronchus and the left main bronchus. The trachea begins immediately below the larynx.
there are 3 bronchi going into the right lung
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.
The left lung has two branches of the bronchial artery because it is supplied by both the left bronchial artery and a smaller branch from the aorta, accommodating its larger size and the need for more vascularization. In contrast, the right lung typically receives its blood supply from a single right bronchial artery, which branches directly from the aorta. This anatomical arrangement is influenced by the distribution of blood vessels in the thoracic cavity and the positioning of the heart, which is slightly shifted to the left. Thus, the branching pattern reflects the variations in lung structure and vascular supply.
The trachea branches off into two tubes going to each lung called the Bronchial Tubes.
the bronchus is one of the major passageways of the lungs that branches off of the trachea.
Structure of the tracheaThe trachea is lined by cartilage and divided into two branches. These two branches are called the bronchi. The left bronchus enters the left lung and the right bronchus enters the right lung. Each bronchus is further divided into around 25 smaller branches. These smaller divisions of bronchi are known as the bronchioles. The bronchioles carry air into the alveoli.
The right lung has 3 sections and the and the left has 2. That makes for One secondary Bronchi per section.
