One of the consequences of this is that it leads to difficulty in breathing. This is likely because O Your trachea becomes clogged Macrophages around the alveoli are activated Your bronchioles dilate The mucociliary elevator ceases to function Your bronchioles constrict OOOarrow_forwardWhich part of the bronchial tree contains ciliated simple columnar epithelium as seen in the photo below 1.
