What does bronchitis have to do with the respiratory system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bronchitis: The bronchi are tubes which sprout off from the trachea and carry air into bronchioles and then into the alveolar spaces of the lung. They are an integral part of the respiratory tract and when inflamed it is called bronchitis.
