Lungs are the organs responsible for gas exchange with the bloodstream.
Bronchial tubes are the two main branches that carry air into the lungs.

Lungs are the organs responsible for gas exchange with the bloodstream.
Tracheal rings support the walls of the trachea.
The lungs have two lobes, the right lung has three lobes while the left lung has only one lobe to accommodate the heart.
Tracheal rings support the walls of the trachea and prevent it from collapsing during breathing.
The trachea is also known as the windpipe, which carries air from the larynx to the bronchi.
Tracheal rings support the walls of the trachea and prevent it from collapsing during breathing.
The bronchioles branch off from the bronchial tubes, leading to smaller and smaller passages until they reach the alveoli.
Each lung is divided into segments by connective tissue septa that contain bronchioles and arteries.
Cilia are tiny hair-like projections on the surface of cells that move back and forth to sweep away mucus and debris.
Tracheal cartilage forms rings around the trachea to keep it open during breathing.
Cilia are hair-like projections on cells that line the respiratory tract.
Cilia are hair-like projections on cells that line the respiratory tract.
The pleural membrane covers the surface of the lungs and lines the thoracic cavity.
Mucous glands produce mucus, which helps trap foreign particles and bacteria in the respiratory tract.
Alveoli are tiny sac-like structures where oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffuses out.
Capillaries surround the alveoli and transport oxygenated blood away from the lungs.

The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle located at the bottom of the ribcage that contracts and relaxes to aid in breathing.
Bronchioles are small tubes that branch off from bronchi and lead to alveoli.

The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle located at the bottom of the ribcage that contracts and relaxes to aid in breathing.
Alveolar ducts lead to clusters of alveoli where gas exchange occurs between air and blood.
Alveoli are tiny sac-like structures found at the end of the respiratory tract where oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffuses out.
Mucous glands produce sticky secretions called mucus.
Pulmonary capillaries surround the alveoli and exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the bloodstream.
Gas exchange occurs at the level of the alveoli, where oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffuses out.
