Explanation

Bronchi are the main passageways into the lungs. When you breathe in, air travels down your throat, into your windpipe, and then into the bronchi. Each bronchus, the singular form of bronchi, then divides into smaller branches inside the lungs to allow oxygen to reach every part of them. Essentially, bronchi are the tubes that help deliver air from your mouth and nose to your lungs.
