Bronchioles. Air enters through the mouth, down the trachea and into the left and right main bronchi (which lead to the left and right lungs respectively) The bronchi then branch off continually into smaller and smaller bronchi. The very smallest of these are called bronchioles and they end in tiny air sacs called alveoli.
