Which respiratory structure is comprised of cartilage and ligaments?
That tube is called the trachea. It is also known as the windpipe.
What part of the respiratory system is a division of the trachea?
A division of the Trachea is the Bronchiole Tubes
What organs are apart of the respiratory system?
The parts are the Trachea,Bronchiole,Bronchiole Tubes, Bronchi, and the air sacs.
What is the passageway of air from the nasal cavity to the trachea?
bronchiole
What structure is located between the trachea and bronchiole?
The trachea splits into the left and right bronchi in the thoracic cavity(the chest). From there the bronchi continue to branch out and keep getting smaller. Kind of like the branches on a tree. At the end of the those branches (bronchioles) are the alveoli( tiny grape like structures). In the alveoli is where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occur.
What muscular structure is located between the pharynx and the trachea?
The larynx, commonly known as the voice box, is the muscular structure located between the pharynx and the trachea. It contains the vocal cords that vibrate to produce sound during speech.
Where is bronchitis located in the body?
Bronchioles are located in the lungs. They branch off of the bronchi.
What is closest to the Alevoli Trachea bronchus bronchiole or Pharynx?
The bronchiole is closest to the alveoli, as it is part of the branching structure of the respiratory system that leads directly to the alveoli, where gas exchange occurs. The trachea and bronchus are larger airways that lead to the bronchioles, while the pharynx is part of the upper respiratory tract and is further upstream in the airway pathway.
What structure is located in the uppermost region of the trachea?
throat or pharynx
What is the route of air from the external nares to alveolus?
Nostrils → Nasal Cavity → Pharynx → Larynx → Trachea → Main Bronchus → Lobar Bronchiole → Segmental Bronchus → Bronchiole → Terminal Bronchiole → Respiratory Bronchiole → Alveolar Duct → Atrium → Alveolus
What is the journey of an oxygen molecule through the respiratory system?
Nose>>>pharynx>>>larynx >>>trachea >>>bronchus >>>bronchiole >>>alveolus
Branches of the windpide that lead into the lungs are the?
trachea- primary bronchi- secondary bronchi- tertiary bronchi- bronchiole- alveoli
