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.

convection |

diffusion |
|
radiation |
|
conduction |

Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
