which of the following represents the correct flow of air into the lung of a mammal?
a larynx → trachea → bronchi → bronchioles → alveoli
b trachea → bronchioles → bronchi → alveoli
c trachea → larynx → bronchi → alveoli
d alveoli → larynx → bronchi → trachea

Explanation:

When air enters a mammal's body, it first passes through the larynx (voice box). Then it goes into the trachea (windpipe). From the trachea, the air moves into the bronchi (two main branches leading into the lungs). The bronchi further divide into smaller bronchioles. Finally, the air reaches the alveoli (tiny air - sacs where gas exchange occurs).

Answer:

A. larynx → trachea → bronchi → bronchioles → alveoli
