Foreign objects that enter the respiratory passageways are more likely to become lodged in the right primary (main) bronchus.
The right bronchi
Bronchi are the main airways in the respiratory system that branch off from the trachea. They are lined with mucus-producing cells and ciliated cells that help trap and remove foreign particles from the air. The bronchi also contain smooth muscle that can contract or relax to control airflow.
"Stuck in air" likely refers to mucus or foreign particles that become trapped in the respiratory system, particularly in the airways. When this occurs, cilia—tiny hair-like structures lining the respiratory tract—help move the mucus down into the bronchi, facilitating its clearance from the lungs. This process is essential for maintaining respiratory health by preventing infections and ensuring that airways remain clear for efficient breathing.
Cilia are responsible for removing foreign material from the trachea and bronchi. They are like little dusters that remove germs and bacteria.
The right main bronchus
The bronchopulmonary lymph nodes are responsible for draining lymph from the lungs, bronchi, and trachea. They help in filtering and removing pathogens, dead cells, and other foreign particles from the respiratory system. This process aids in immune response and maintaining overall respiratory health.
