The correct answer is "the trachea and bronchi."
To understand how the model of the respiratory system was built, we need to know the basic anatomy of the respiratory system. The respiratory system consists of several key structures, including the lungs, trachea, bronchi, chest cavity, ribs, and diaphragm.
In this specific model, the straws were used to represent the trachea and bronchi. The trachea is the tube-like structure that connects the throat to the lungs and allows for the passage of air. It then branches out into smaller tubes called bronchi, which further divide into bronchioles and eventually into the alveoli in the lungs.
By using straws to represent the trachea and bronchi, the model is able to demonstrate the pathway of air as it travels from the throat to the lungs. This allows for a visual representation of how air moves through the respiratory system.
