As mammals our aerobic metabolic system requires oxygen for us to sustain life. The organ that transports oxygen from the environment into the body where it is needed‚ are the lungs. Oxygen is transported through cellular respiration from the lungs to tissues and organs. Between 2‚100 to 2‚400 gallons of air is breathed to fuel 2‚400 gallons of blood that is pumped into the heart. Respiration is controlled by the medulla oblongata‚ which deals with the autonomic function of breathing. This characteristic

and _conductivity___. A neuron has a positive charge on the outer surface of the cell membrane due in part to the action of an active transport system called the __sodium-potassium pump______. This system moves _sodium____ out of the cell and ___potassium___ into the cell. The inside of the cell membrane is negative‚ not only due to the active transport system but also because of _intracellular proteins_‚ which remain negative due to intracellular pH and keep the inside of the cell membrane negative
