It is all a matter of size and there they are on the bronchial 'tree'. The pharynx is the trunk. The primary bronchi are the first two large branches (going to each lung). They branch to form tertiary bronchi.
Each tertiary bronchus branches into multiple bronchioles, which branch further into the very smallest conducting branches, the terminal bronchioles.
Each terminal bronchiole branches to form several respiratory bronchioles, where gas exchange takes place.

What makes up the bronchial tree?
The bronchial tree includes the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Pimary Bronchi, Secondary Bronchi, Tertiary Bronchi, and Smaller Bronchi.
What is the bronchial?
The term 'bronchial tree' refers to the inner workings of the lungs. It includes the bronchi, bronchioles, and alvioli, all of which are necessary for breathing.
Label the parts of bronchial tree?
respiratory zone is from respiratory bronchioles (generation 17-19) to alveolar ducts (generation 20-22) to alveolar sacs (generation 23). It is the site of gas exhange, where velocity of gas is low, and diffusion is the dominant mechanism of gas exchange.
Which part of the respiratory system divides into smaller and similar tubes in a pattern that resembles the branches of a tree?
The bronchial tree, comprised of bronchi and bronchioles, divides into smaller and similar tubes resembling a tree's branches. This branching pattern allows air to reach the alveoli in the lungs efficiently for gas exchange.
What is the trachea is divided into two bronchial tubes?
The trachea branches into two bronchial tubes called the left and right main bronchi. These bronchi further divide into smaller bronchial tubes that extend into the lungs to supply air to the bronchioles and alveoli for gas exchange.
Air passageway between trachea and lungs?
The subdivisions of the respiratory tree are, from trachea to lungs, are trachea, mainstem bronchi, segmental bronchi, subsegmental bronchi, terminal bronchi, bronchioles, terminal bronchioles and alveoli.There are about 20 subdivisions of bronchi and bronchioles, they are not named individually.== ==
What is the name of the small subdivision of the bronchi?
Bronchi divide into bronchioles.
What is the meaning of the term bronchial?
The term "bronchial" is an adjective used to describe things associated with bronchi/bronchioles, which are either or both of the tubes that branches off the trachea/windpipe and extend into the lungs.
What are the different types of bronchioles?
There are the bronchi and bronchioles
What is the two tubes that connect to the trachea and to bronchioles called?
Trachea branches to the mainstem bronchus branches to the lobar bronchi branches to the segmental bronchi to the bronchioles branches to the terminal bronchioles branches to the respiratory bronchioles branches to the the alveolar ducts finally lead to the alveoli.Or... Trachea to Bronchus (Bronchi) to the bronchioles to the alveolar ducts to the alveoli.
What is the biggest difference in structure between the bronchi and the bronchioles?
i need the same answer
Which structures brings oxygen from the trachea to the Lungs?
It's Bronchi- Gradpoint sucks!bronchi, novanet
