There are many type of disease that can affect the Respiratory system. The disease that can affect this system is Lung Cancer‚ Bronchitis‚ Emphysema and Pneumonia. The disease that can affect the system as well is called Asthma. This disease is one of the common diseases I’ve known beside lung cancer. Asthma is a lung disease that inflames and narrows the airways. When the airways get inflamed‚ it causes the airways to become swollen and the muscles around it tighten. This makes it difficult for

up carbon dioxide‚ which is the result of cellular metabolism and completely unnecessary for the organism. Therefore‚ it is an essential mechanism in every living organism. Tidal volume (TV) is the volume of gas inhaled and exhaled during one respiratory cycle‚ this volume is equal to approximately 500 milliliters. vital capacity (VC) is the volume of gas that can be expelled from the lungs from a position of full inspiration‚ with no limit to duration of inspiration; equal to inspiratory capacity

with exercise‚ could be accomplished by increasing the volume of each breath‚ the tidal volume‚ increasing the respiratory rate or by some combination of the two. In the subject’s case it was a combination of the two. Tidal volume is more effective at increasing minute ventilation than respiratory rate‚ however‚ if a subject is unfit they will be required to increase their respiratory rate as they cannot breath as deeply as someone with trained lungs.

Using a spirometer to investigate human lung function The purpose of this activity is: • to show how a spirometer can be used to find the vital capacity of lungs and to calculate important subdivisions of this capacity. • to show how to interpret the trace resulting from use of a spirometer • to consider how to use a spirometer to estimate metabolic rate. Procedure SAFETY: Do not use a spirometer unless supervised by a teacher. If you are using the spirometer and you experience

Running head: (RSV) Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) By Natalie Jache December 03‚ 2006 Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Introduction Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a very common respiratory virus that displays mild cold like symptoms in adults and older children. In children under two‚ particularly those born prematurely‚ are immunocompromised‚ as well as those with heart and lung disease‚ RSV can be a potentially life threatening disease. RSV commonly occurs in epidemics

the body of which all perform various activities and all interrelate with at least one other system; the nervous system. The most complex of all body systems‚ the nervous system controls all functions within the body. The main function of the respiratory system is to inhale oxygen and exhale the waste product carbon dioxide. Oxygen is breathed through the mouth and nostrils into the lungs. The gas then diffuses through the alveolar walls and into the red blood cells. Carbon dioxide carried back
