Detailed explanation-1: -The bronchi are the passageways that connect your windpipe to your lungs. You have two main bronchi in your right and left lungs that divide and branch off into smaller segments, like tree branches.

Detailed explanation-2: -From the windpipe, air moves into the lungs through tubes called bronchi. The bronchi lead to smaller tubes called bronchioles, which look like the branches of a tree.

Detailed explanation-3: -Within the lungs, the bronchi branch into smaller bronchi and even smaller tubes called bronchioles (pronounced: BRAHN-kee-olz). Bronchioles end in tiny air sacs called alveoli, where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide actually takes place.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bronchi branch into smaller tubes that become bronchioles.

Detailed explanation-5: -In the lungs, the main-stem bronchi divide into smaller bronchi. The smaller bronchi divide into even smaller tubes (bronchioles). Bronchioles end in tiny air sacs (alveoli) where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs.
