The histology of Intrapulmonary bronchi is similar to that of the trachea and extra-pulmonary bronchiole, except that C-shaped cartilage rings are absent here and replaced by cartilage plates. Intrapulmonary Bronchus :  Pseudo-stratified Columnar Ciliated Bronchial Epithelium Cartilage Plates & Seromucous Bronchial Glands Terminal Bronchiole :  Simple Columnar Epithelium  Prominent mucosal folds & well developed smooth muscles Respiratory Bronchiole :  Simple Cuboidal Epithelium  Alveolar Out-pocketings in the wall  Gives rise to alveolar ducts Alveolar Walls :  Out-pocketings of respiratory bronchioles type 1 & 2 Pneumocyets  Also contain Alveolar macrophages  Bands of Smooth muscle fibres in interalveolar septa
