What is Trachea Anatomy and Function about?

The trachea, or windpipe, is a flexible tube made of cartilage and soft tissue that connects the larynx to the lungs, splitting into bronchi at the carina. It is supported by U-shaped cartilage rings and has smooth muscle for flexibility, with blood supply from the inferior thyroid and bronchial arteries. Nerve control comes from the vagus and recurrent laryngeal nerves, and lymph drainage occurs into nearby lymph nodes in the neck and chest.
