The tubes that connect the bronchi with the alveoli are the bronchioles.
Air enters the body through the nose or mouth, then travels down the windpipe (trachea) into the bronchial tubes in the lungs. The bronchial tubes divide into smaller airways called bronchioles, which lead to tiny air sacs called alveoli where gas exchange takes place. Oxygen from the air passes through the alveoli walls into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the bloodstream passes out into the lungs to be exhaled.
The tubes that lead from the middle ear to the nasal cavity and throat are called the Eustachian tubes. These tubes help regulate air pressure in the middle ear, drain fluids, and protect the ear from infections.
Yes, bronchial tubes are larger in diameter compared to bronchioles. Bronchial tubes are the main airways in the respiratory system that branch off into bronchioles, which are smaller airways that lead to the alveoli in the lungs where gas exchange occurs.
The tubes at the bottom of the windpipe are called bronchi, which branch off into smaller tubes called bronchioles that lead to the lungs. They are part of the respiratory system and play a crucial role in transporting air to and from the lungs for gas exchange.
Bronchial spasm can lead to a decrease in air movement through the bronchial tubes, causing air to become trapped in the alveoli. This can result in difficulty breathing and decreased oxygen exchange in the lungs, leading to symptoms like wheezing and shortness of breath. Treatment may involve bronchodilators to help relax the airways and improve airflow.

The bronchi branch into smaller tubes called bronchioles, which then lead to clusters of air sacs called alveoli. The alveoli are the site where oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange occurs during the process of respiration.
After air passes through the larynx, it enters your windpipe, or trachea. The trachea cleans the air again and channels it into the lungs through two large tubes called bronchi. The bronchi divide into smaller tubes and eventually lead to air sacs called alveoli. It is in the alveoli that oxygen moves into your blood and carbon dioxide moves out.
After passing through the larynx, air moves through the trachea, which then branches into the bronchial tubes. The bronchial tubes further branch into smaller airways called bronchioles, which ultimately lead to the alveoli where gas exchange occurs in the lungs.
When we breathe in, air travels down into our bodies through the trachea (windpipe) and into the bronchial tubes in our lungs. These tubes branch off into smaller airways called bronchioles, which lead to tiny air sacs called alveoli where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is released.
The main air tube in your throat is called the trachea. You can feel its ridges of cartilage along the front of your neck. The trachea has two branches called bronchi which are also strengthened by cartilage. They lead to the lungs. The next smaller branches are called bronchioles; they are soft without cartilage since they are inside the lungs. The bronchioles lead to the alveoli where the work of the lungs takes place.
The trachea or windpipe divides into the two primary bronchi which enter each lung. These further divide and subdivide into smaller and smaller bronchi finally forming tiny tubes called bronchioles that end in alveoli (air sacs that facilitate oxygen transfer from the lungs into the pulmonary capillaries).
Air enters the body through the nose or mouth, then travels down the windpipe (trachea) into the bronchial tubes in the lungs. The bronchial tubes divide into smaller airways called bronchioles, which lead to tiny air sacs called alveoli where gas exchange takes place. Oxygen from the air passes through the alveoli walls into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the bloodstream passes out into the lungs to be exhaled.
The lungs contain alveoli, bronchioles, and bronchi. Alveoli are tiny air sacs where oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the blood. Bronchioles are small airways that branch from bronchi, which are larger airways that lead to the lungs.
Oxygen enters the respiratory system through the mouth and the nose. The oxygen then passes through the larynx (where speech sounds are produced) and the trachea which is a tube that enters the chest cavity. In the chest cavity, the trachea splits into two smaller tubes called the bronchi. Each bronchus then divides again forming the bronchial tubes. The bronchial tubes lead directly into the lungs where they divide into many smaller tubes which connect to tiny sacs called alveoli. The average adult's lungs contain about 600 million of these spongy, air-filled sacs that are surrounded by capillaries. The inhaled oxygen passes into the alveoli and then diffuses through the capillaries into the arterial blood. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood from the veins releases its carbon dioxide into the alveoli. The carbon dioxide follows the same path out of the lungs when you exhale.
The tubes that lead from the middle ear to the nasal cavity and throat are called the Eustachian tubes. These tubes help regulate air pressure in the middle ear, drain fluids, and protect the ear from infections.
