Pluralbronchi(brŏng′kī′, brŏng′kē′) Either of the two main tubular structures branching from the trachea and leading to the lungs, where they divide into smaller branches. The American Heritage® Student Science Dictionary, Second Edition. Copyright © 2014 by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt...
The path of air through the respiratory tract is:trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli. It is important to note that no gas exchange takes place in the bronchi, but does in the bronchioles, which are passageways that branch off from the main bronchi and eventually lead to alveolar ducts. W...

In the damaged lung, different epithelial cells can self-renew and differentiate, depending on the region and type of injury18. In the mouse trachea and main bronchi, basal cells are considered the major stem cell population19. Lineage tracing ofScgb1a1+cells demonstrated that club cells act as...
bronchi and prevent their collapse. The primary bronchi (singular: bronchus) enter the lungs at thehilum, a concave region where blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves also enter the lungs. Each bronchus divides into secondary bronchi, then into tertiary bronchi, which in turn divide, ...
in plants. There are two distinct primary forms of branching, dichotomy and monopodial branching. In dichotomy the growth center divides into two new growth centers, which usually produce second-order branches, almost identical in length and thickness, which can in turn divide into third-order bra...
All live in primary rainforests, but C. cephus is also very common in secondary forests. All are arboreal quadrupeds. Cercopithecus pogonias and C. nictitans are found primarily in the middle and upper levels of the main canopy, whereas C. cephus prefers the lower levels of the canopy and ...
For those treated in hospital, the guidelines divide patients into those treated on a medical ward and those treated in the ICU, and use the risk of infection with Ps. aeruginosa as a means of further subdividing ICU patients, reflecting the enhanced mortality rate and constitutive antimicrobial ...
After vitals were taken, it was determined that Patricia had a high fever and a cough and needed to be seen by a primary care provider to determine the cause. Patricia was diagnosed with pneumonia and was transferred to the medical-surgical floor to receive the appropriate treatment. While ...
Bronchus: Your windpipe splits into two bronchi linking to each of your lungs, where they further divide into many bronchiole passages resembling the branches of a tree. Lungs: Your primary respiratory organs are a pair of spongy, pinkish-grey structures in your chest cavity. They inflate with...
