describe airs journey in the body ?

A
  1. air enters the body and is warmed as it travels through the mouth and nose
  2. it then enters the trachea
  3. the trachea divides into two bronchi. One bronchus enters each lung
  4. each bronchus branches out into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Air travels through these bronchioles
  5. at the end of the bronchioles, the air enters one of the many millions of alveoli, where gaseous change takes place
