What is the function of bronchodilators in respiratory conditions like asthma and emphysema?

  1. To induce sleep

  2. To decrease frequency and severity of seizures

  3. To widen air passages in the lungs

  4. To thin mucus for easy removal

The correct answer is: To widen air passages in the lungs

Bronchodilators are specifically used to widen air passages in the lungs, making it easier for people with respiratory conditions like asthma and emphysema to breathe. They do not induce sleep or affect seizure frequency or severity. While thinning mucus can also be helpful in respiratory conditions, it is not the primary function of bronchodilators.
