Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The trachea branches off into two tubes, one leading to each lung. Those tubes are known as
A
bronchioles
B
branches
C
bronchi
D
alveoli
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The bronchi are the two large tubes that carry air from your windpipe to your lungs. You have a left and right main bronchus in each lung. After the main bronchi, these tubes branch out into segments that look like tree branches. Many respiratory conditions, such as asthma or bronchitis, can affect your bronchi.

Detailed explanation-2: -When a person breathes, air taken in through the nose or mouth then goes into the trachea (windpipe). From there, it passes through the bronchial tubes, into the lungs, and finally back out again. The bronchial tubes, which branch into smaller tubes called bronchioles, are sometimes referred to as bronchi or airways.

Detailed explanation-3: -At its bottom end, the trachea divides into left and right air tubes called bronchi (pronounced: BRAHN-kye), which connect to the lungs. Within the lungs, the bronchi branch into smaller bronchi and even smaller tubes called bronchioles (pronounced: BRAHN-kee-olz).
