The trachea (TRAY-kee-uh) is sometimes called the windpipe. The trachea filters the air we breathe and branches into the bronchi. When a person breathes, air comes in through the nose or mouth and then goes into the trachea (windpipe). From there, it passes through the bronchial tubes, which are in the lungs.
