Trachea
(

) - allows air to flow into the lungs; reinforced by
15-20
C-shaped pieces of hyaline cartilage
Tracheobronchial
tree - consists of the
trachea
and all other respiratory passageways in the lungs (
bronchioles
)
Bronchodilation
- occurs when the smooth muscle relaxes, making the bronchiole diameter larger
Bronchoconstriction
- occurs when smooth muscle contracts, making the bronchiole diameter smaller; happens during asthma attacks
