Air passage ways between trachea and lungs?
air enters the mouth or nose into the nasal cavity, it passes the eppiglottis and larynx then it enters the trachea where it goes onto the bronchi which divide into bronchioles which divide into the Alveoli where gases co2 and o2 are echanged then back to the lungs and to the heart through the polmonary vein.
Which is the pathway of oxygen to the lungs?
Oxygen enters the body through the mouth or nose, passes through the trachea (windpipe), then enters the bronchial tubes in the lungs. Within the lungs, the oxygen is absorbed by tiny air sacs called alveoli and then enters the bloodstream to be transported to cells throughout the body.
What is the description of bronchi?
the bronchi is conected to your lungs.
Flow of air from the nasal cavaties to the aveoli?
Air enters the nasal cavities through the nostrils and is filtered, moistened, and warmed before passing through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Finally, the air reaches the alveoli in the lungs where gas exchange occurs, with oxygen diffusing into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffusing out.
Where does air go after entering the bronchi?
Air moves from the larynx into the bronchial tubes then enters the lungs and is filtered into oxygen and other components by the avioli. The oxygen goes to the blood, and the other molecules (nitrogen, argon,helium,hydrogen etc.) are breathed out.
Which is the best description of the path of air through the body after it enters the nose or mouth?
Trachea (or wind-pipe) to bronchi to alveoli of lungs ... and then back out.
Are bronchi an organ?
The Bronchi is not an Organ. An Organ is tissues that carry out a human process, Bronchi is in the Lungs, so the Bronchi helps the lung carry out respiration.
What is the order of structures that oxygen passes through between your nose and your bloodstream?
Oxygen enters your nose,then goes through the trachea,to the bronchi,and last to your lungs.
