MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The airway that leads from the larynx (voice box) to the bronchi (large airways that lead to the lungs). Also called trachea.

Detailed explanation-2: -The trachea, commonly known as the windpipe, is a tube about 4 inches long and less than an inch in diameter in most people. The trachea begins just under the larynx (voice box) and runs down behind the breastbone (sternum). The trachea then divides into two smaller tubes called bronchi: one bronchus for each lung.

Detailed explanation-3: -The hollow tube inside the neck that starts behind the nose and ends at the top of the trachea (windpipe) and esophagus (the tube that goes to the stomach). The pharynx is about 5 inches long, depending on body size. Also called throat.

Detailed explanation-4: -The trachea is a hollow, tube-like structure that runs from the larynx, or voice box, to the bronchi-the two passageways that connect the trachea to the lungs.

Detailed explanation-5: -The trachea divides into two small branches which are known as bronchi. A bronchus is a passage of airway in the respiratory system that conducts air into the lungs. The first bronchi to branch from the trachea are the right main bronchus and the left main bronchus.
