Across
- 3. Conducts air in and out of the trachea and prevents foreign objects from entering
- 5. When bronchioles go into spasms, causing coughing
- 10. Where gas exchange takes place
- 12. Disease where lungs lose elasticity and the walls of alveoli become damaged
- 13. Composed if bone and cartilage and divides nose into left and right portions
- 14. Consists of branched airways leading from the trachea to the microscopic air sacs
- 19. Thin fluid film that lubricates lung surfaces to reduce friction from breathing
- 20. Seperates the right and left lungs
