The differences between bronchi and bronchioles is where the air passages are located.

The bronchi is the air passages that start out at the end of the trachea and then leads to the lungs while the bronchioles is the air passages where the air passes through the nose or mouth to the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs, in which the branches no longer contain cartilage or glands in their sub-mucosa.
