Diffusion of gases occurs in the alveolar region only and not in the other parts of respiratory system. ... Oxygen-rich air enters the body through the nose and reaches the alveoli. The deoxygenated (carbon dioxide-rich) blood from the body is brought to the heart by the veins.

Alveoli are made up of single cell layered epithelium which is provided with blood capillaries.so it is the respiratory area part where diffusion takes place.
where as the trachea, bronchi and broncioles have multilayered walls without capillary network.So these tubes are only air conducting parts where diffusion does not occur.
