The structure of the respiratory system is most analogous to **an upside-down deciduous tree**. This is because the bronchial tree branches out like the limbs of a tree, starting from the trachea and splitting into smaller bronchi and bronchioles, similar to how a tree branches out into smaller twigs and leaves.
