Respiratory System: Study Guide The respiratory system provides for exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide of the body. - In terrestrial vertebrae’s‚ the respiratory system includes 3 steps: 1. Breathing: Inspiration (inhaling oxygen) and Expiration (exhaling carbon dioxide) 2. External exchange- Gas exchange between the AIR and BLOOD in lungs. Blood then transfers oxygen to the tissue cells. 3. Internal exchange- Gas exchange between the BLOOD & TISSUE FLUID and between the CELLS & TISSUE FLUID

Respiratory disease Respiratory disease is a medical term that encompasses pathological conditions affecting the organs and tissues that make gas exchange possible in higher organisms‚ and includes conditions of the upper respiratory tract‚ trachea‚ bronchi‚ bronchioles‚ alveoli‚ pleura and pleural cavity‚ and the nerves and muscles of breathing. Respiratory diseases range from mild and self-limiting‚ such as the common cold‚ to life-threatening entities like bacterial pneumonia‚ pulmonary embolism

The respiratory rate is a very important tool through which it is possible to recognise early signs of deterioration of a patient (Philip‚ Richardson & Maurice Cohen 2013‚ p. 570). Despite this‚ there is an increasing amount of cases in which healthcare professionals‚ nurses in particular‚ do not routinely assess and document this important vital sign correctly (Massey & Meredith 2010‚ p. 538). This essay will discuss the reasons why healthcare professionals are likely to omit assessing and documenting

FLUID MECHANICS Fluids mechanics is a branch of mechanics that is concerned with properties of gases and liquids. Mechanics is important as all physical activities involves fluid environments‚ be it air‚ water or a combination of both. The type of fluid environment we experience impacts on performance. Flotation The ability to maintain a stationary on the surface of the water- varies from he on person to another. Our body floats on water when forces created by its weight are matched equally
