The tubes that take the air from the mouth to the air-sacs in the lungs.
A general term for the system of tubes that runs from the back of the mouth and nose into the lungs. The largest is the trachea or windpipe. In the chest, the trachea divides into two smaller tubes called bronchi. Each bronchus then supplies one lung. After entering the lung, the bronchi divide further into narrower tubes called bronchioles and these supply the air sacs of the lung. The airways contain a thin lining on the inside moistened with a little mucus. Barring choking or drowning, from the moment you are born your airways are kept clear and, unless you smoke, fairly clean. Asthma sufferers find that periodically their airways narrow and they can't breathe normally. The smooth muscle is contracting and so narrowing the airway, and at the same time the inner lining becomes inflamed and reddened. It may also swell. Extra mucus is produced, sometimes thicker than usual, and it can partially clog or obstruct the airway.
The tubes that conduct air in and out of the lungs
The air passages that air passes through in the lungs.
Hollow tubes to and within the lungs through which air passes during breathing. Airways include the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles.
Nasal cavity, mouth, throat, larynx, trachea, bronchi and alveolar ducts. Airway calibre: The internal diameter of the airways.
The passageways through which air moves while traveling in and out of the lungs during breathing.
The whole system that enables us to breathe, from the nose to the Alveoli in the Lungs, through the throat, past the voice box, through the Trachea into the Bronchi and Bronchioles.
Passages in the lungs that move air in and out of the body. Sometimes called bronchiole tubes, bronchi or respiratory system.
Tubular structures within the neck (trachea) and lungs (bronchi, bronchioles, bronchioli) that allow passage of air into and out of the lungs.
The Passageways that air moves through while traveling in and out of the lungs during breathing.
Tubes that carry air into and out of the lungs.
passages in the lungs that air travels through.
Hollow tubes connecting to lungs, including the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles.
These are bronchial (BRONG-ke-al) tubes in the lungs that branch out from the windpipe.
The airways are part of the respiratory (breathing) system; they are the tubes through which air flows to and from the lungs.
