The respiratory system is composed of the nasal cavity‚ nostril‚ oral cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ carina of trachea‚ right main bronchus‚ right lung‚ left main bronchus‚ left lung‚ and diaphragm. These major organs collectively work together to give the body oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide as we breathe. In order for the respiratory system to be fully capable of function‚ four procedures (pulmonary ventilation‚ external respiration‚ transport of respiratory gases‚ internal respiration)
Premium Endocrine system Blood Kidney
digestive and respiratory system are interrelated because although each of these systems have their own individual purposes. The digestive system takes the food that is eaten and breaks it down into smaller molecules that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Cells can then use the molecules for their maintenance. The respiratory system takes in oxygen from the atmosphere and then passes it into the bloodstream in order for it to be delivered to all the cells in the body. The circulatory system delivers

Respiratory System Respiration: The primary function of the respiratory system is to obtain oxygen gas for cell metabolism and remove carbon dioxide waste. Describe each of the following general processes of respiration. Ventilation- air is moved into and out of the lungs so the gases there are continuously changed and refreshed external respiration- oxygen diffuses from the lungs to the blood‚ and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood to the lungs gas transport- oxygen is transported

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM WEBQUEST 1. Describe the function of the nasal and oral pharynx for breathing. The ph arynx is a muscular funnel that extends from the back of the nose to the larynx‚ or voice box. The nasal pharynx’s function is to allow air passage through it. The oral pharynx has both respiratory and digestive functions since it serves as a passageway for air‚ food‚ and water. 2. Describe the structure and function of the epiglottis. The epiglottis is one of the nine cartilagous structures

Energy Energy can be found in many forms. These forms can be- Chemical- usually found in substances Heat- this slows down energy and you may become dehydrated Sound- Your body absorbs this‚ and if you feel the energy from upbeat music Electrical – Your body absorbs this Light- Direct sunlight gives your body energy. A chemical bond that is made happens between two atoms or molecules. The energy can only be seen when the atoms or molecules have created a chemical reaction

The digestive‚ respiratory and the cardiovascular system are all interrelated in order to make the human body work effectively and efficiently by working as an orchestra. The cardiovascular system and the respiratory will work together in order to perform the gas exchange which is passing of oxygen from the alveoli into the blood flow and then the carbon dioxide passes trough the blood flow and is breathed out from the body. This means oxygen (in) CO2 (out).

Respiratory System A frog’s respiratory system is much different than humans. First‚ the lungs in a frog have thin walls and are shaped like balloons. When frogs swim‚ they fill their lungs with air‚ which helps them stay buoyant while swimming. Frogs also do not have diaphragms compared to humans. They only breathe through their nose. They use muscles in their throat sacs to help move the air in‚ and then is pushed to the lungs. During this time‚ their mouth is closed. Body contractions allow
