|
how do bronchioles change from prox to distal
|
pseudostratified ciliated columnar (widest)
to simple ciliated columnal to simple ciliated cuboidal (narrowest) scattered goblets to no musclaris mucosa or goblets |
|
bronchiole on microscope
|
-discontinuous
-have alveoli attached so you see "holes in the wall" of terminal bronchiole on slides |
|
alveolar ducts arise from
|
distal respiratory bronchioles
|
|
wall of alveolar duct
|
-appears to be just 2-3 rows of openings into adjacent alveoli
-separated by pillars of smooth m (tiny pink dots) and elastin that functions as tiny sphincters and maintain structural integrity (keep them open) |
