The trachea, bronchi and bronchioles form the tracheobronchial tree â a system of airways that allow passage of air into the lungs, where gas exchange occurs.he trachea marks the beginning of the tracheobronchial tree. It arises at the lower border of cricoid cartilage in the neck, as a continuation of the larynx. By Bibi Saint-Pol [CC BY-SA 3.0], via Wikimedia Commons.

While relative masses are nice if you want to compare protons, neutrons and electrons to one another, it doesn't tell you what the actual masses of these particles are. In kilograms, the masses are: Neutron = 1.6749286*10-27 kg.
The atomic mass for an atom of hydrogen is one dalton, which is calculated from the lone proton. Remember, electrons are too small to be considered in the atomic mass. Helium is the second lightest element, and is larger than hydrogen. It consists of two protons and two neutrons. Because protons and neutrons are approximately the same size, the atomic mass of a helium atom is four daltons. Let's look at a larger atom. Barium has an atomic mass of 137 daltons.
