Airways Inside the Lungs. Airways Inside the Lungs. The lungs' airways (bronchial tubes) divide into smaller and smaller branches (bronchioles). The airways end in air sacs (alveoli) where oxygen moves into the blood.
Hilum Location. Each lung (the right and left lungs) can be divided into four main sections: the apex, base, root, and the hilus, or hilum of the lung. Hila, or lung roots, are relatively complicated structures that consist mainly of the major bronchi and the pulmonary arteries and veins. The hilum of the lung is found on the medial aspect of each lung, and it is the only site of entrance or exit of structures associated with the lungs. That is to say, both lungs have a region called the hilum, which serves as the point of attachment between the lung root and the lung.
