troposphere |
The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface.

Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
circulation |
|
nervous |
|
respiration |
|
digestion |
The trachea branches into the left and right bronchi which each lead to a lung where the bronchi subdivide into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in a small sac called an alveolus which allows oxygen from the air to enter the bloodstream via tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
