When a cat breathes air in through its nose or mouth, the air travels down the trachea, which divides into the tubes known as the right and left bronchi, then into the smaller airways called bronchioles in the lungs.
Lower airway disease is classified into 2 predominant categories: asthma and chronic bronchitis. Here's how to differentiate between the 2 in cats.
3 Αυγ 2015 · The bronchi bring air from the trachea into the lungs. Like the trachea they are also lined with cilia and mucus producing cells. The main function of the lungs is provide a huge surface area over which gases are exchanged between the body’s circulation and the outside air.
13 Απρ 2019 · This Perspectives in Veterinary Medicine article seeks to define, describe putative causes, and discuss key diagnostic tests for primary and secondary bronchiolar disorders to propose a classification scheme in cats with support from a literature review and case examples.
18 Ιουλ 2016 · The respiratory system (apparatus respiratorius) uses the nose, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and smaller passageways to bring air to the alveoli or sites of gaseous exchange within the lungs.
Function. The bronchi and bronchioles are parts of the 'Conduction Zone' of the respiratory system - allowing the passage of air from the external environment into the lungs where gaseous exchange can take place.
