discontinous C-shaped cartilage
-smooth m (posterior side only)
-adventitia (fibrous CT)
distinguish trachea from bronchus
location of smooth m.
t: no cartialge where there is smooth m
b: layer of muscle ABOVE (superficial) to the cartilage
layers of bronchi
resp epithelium
lamina propria
crisscrossing smooth m layer
submucosa - seromucinous/bronchial glands
-hyaline cartilage plates and fibrous CT
-adventitia
how does bronchi change from proximal to distal
densities of goblet cells and seromucinous glands decrease

cartilage goes from rings to insular or plate-like
layers of the bronchiole
-resp epithelium
-lamina propria: no glands or cartilage
-smooth m (crisscrossing bundles)
bronchioles are devoid of
cartilage and submucosal glands
terminal bronchioles sit next to
lung acinus (always assoc with a vessel)
respiratory bronchioles details
project outward from lumen of bronchiole
-signifies the beginning of the resp parenchyma
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)
lining of alveolar duct
simple squamous with type I and type II pneumocytes
type 1 pneumocyte
-BM fused to capillary endothelium
-most diffusive gas exchange occurs through type I
-very thin cells
type 2 pneumocyte
-secrete surfactant
-mix of phsopholipids and proteins
-reduces surface tension and promotes alveolar stability at low lung volumes
-cuboidal scattered within type 1 cells
