3. primary bronchus → lobar bronchus → bronchioles → terminal bronchiole → respiratory bronchiole → alveolar ducts → alveoli
4. primary bronchus → lobar bronchus → bronchioles → respiratory bronchiole → terminal bronchiole → alveolar ducts → alveoli

2. nasal cavity → nasopharynx → oropharynx → laryngopharynx → larynx → glotis
3. nasal cavity → oropharynx → nasopharynx → laryngopharynx → larynx → glotis
4. nasal cavity → nasopharynx → oropharynx → laryngopharynx → glotis → larynx
