Lower Respiratory Tract

A drawing depicting basic features of the human lower respiratory tract including the thyroid cartilage, rib cage and diaphragm. To reveal the internal structures of the left lung, the skeletal structures and heart have been removed and the left lung has been sectioned in the coronal plane.

Summary

Below are the zones and their contributing structures along with where their originated from.

Conducting zone

  • Oral Cavity -Stomodeum
  • Larynx - Endoderm
  • Trachea - Splanchnic Mesoderm
  • Bronchi -Mesoderm giving rise to mesenchyme

Respiratory Zone

  • Terminal Bronchioles - Endoderm giving rise to Squamous epithelium
  • Alveoli ducts - Endoderm
  • Alveoli - Endoderm

Bones and Muscles

  • Bones - Ectoderm
  • Diaphragm - Splanchnic mesoderm as the autonomic nervous system controls the diaphragm
  • Intercostal Muscles" - Mesoderm
