The tubes that enter the lungs of a fetal pig are called bronchi. The trachea, or windpipe, branches into the left and right bronchi, which then lead into the respective lungs. These structures are essential for the passage of air, allowing for gas exchange when the pig is born and begins to breathe. Before birth, however, the lungs are not used for respiration, as the fetus receives oxygen through the placenta.
