courtney mcgregor THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM The respiratory system is the biological system that introduces respiratory gases to the inside of the body and performs a gas exchange (o2 → CO2) through externaal respiration for bodily fuctions to operate. In humans and mammals‚ the anatomical features of the respiratory system include airways‚ lungs and plenty of muscle‚ nose‚ pharyngeal regions‚ larynx‚ and trachea. Five disorders that relate or effect the respiratory system are: Pulmonary HypertensionChronic

EXPLAIN THE LONG TERM BENEFITS OF EXERCISE ON THE RESPIRATORY‚ MUSCULAR‚ CARDIOASCULAR & SKELETAL SYSTEMS Exercising has many long term benefits towards your body. The first one I am going to be writing about is the respiratory system. The respiratory system controls your breathing and begins when you draw in air through your nose or mouth. The air travels through your windpipe into both of your lungs‚ where small air sacs capture oxygen and distribute it in your bloodstream through small

EFFECT OF ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE ON THE ENVIROMENT THE BIOSPHERE Variations in atmospheric pressure can present special problems for the respiratory systems of animals because atmospheric pressure affects the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide that occurs during animal respiration. Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level is the total pressure that a column of air above the surface of the Earth exerts (760 millimetres of mercury‚ or 1 atmosphere)

Oxygen Exchange and Transport Oxygen exchange or respiration takes place at a respiratory surface; a boundary between the external environment and the interior of the body. Gas exchange is the process by which oxygen and carbon dioxide (the respiratory gases) move in opposite directions across an organism’s respiratory membranes‚ between the air or water of the external environment and the body fluids of the internal environment. Oxygen is needed by cells to extract energy from organic molecules

Role of energy in the body There are six main forms of energy- Chemicals Heat Electrical Light Nuclear Sound Energy can be measured or expressed by joules or unites of hear (kilocalorie). 1 kilocalorie= 4.184 kilojoules. Sources of energy- Protein 1g= 4 kcal Carbohydrate 1g= 4 kcal Fats 1g= 9 kcal In our bodies we need energy we need energy for everything we do‚ move our muscles‚ talk etc. Without energy we wouldn’t be able to do anything‚ energy is needed for our bodies to function

Judine Douglas ID#: 3111-0427 Respiratory System The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body. The respiratory system does this through breathing. When we breathe‚ we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. What makes up the Respiratory System? The human respiratory system consists of the nose‚ nasal

Blood a journey through the body. You might find yourself asking‚ what does blood have to do with digestion‚ respiration and circulation? Hopefully‚ after the presentation all of your questions will be answered. When a person thinks of digestion they usually think about what happens in the stomach. A lot has happened to digest the food way before it gets to the stomach. It starts in the mouth or oral cavity. It is a process called mechanical digestion. First‚ Mastication begins. Mastication
