Question
Chapter 23, Problem 19RQ
Summary Introduction
To justify:
The given statement, “The bronchioles are to the respiratory system what the arterioles are to the cardiovascular systems.”
Introduction:
The accessory parts of the circulatory system and the respiratory system are similar to each other due to many similarities present in-between them. The most notable is the similarity between the bronchioles and the arterioles. They are the tube like structures that are responsible for taking oxygenated blood and gases respectively.
