Three text boxes are seen one below the other on the right. The first text box reads ‘Nose: Air enters the body through the nose, where it is filtered, moistened, and warmed’. The second text box reads ‘Pharynx, Larynx, and Trachea: From the nose, air moves into the pharynx. Then, it passes through the larynx, which contains the vocal cords, and through the trachea’. The third text box reads ‘Lungs: From the trachea, air moves into the bronchi. Each bronchus leads to one lung. The bronchi divide into bronchioles, which eventually end at alveoli’.
A section of the lung is enlarged to show its structural parts. The parts labeled in the picture are;
- Pulmonary artery
- Bronchioles
- Alveoli
- Capillaries
- Pulmonary vein
