The human respiratory system is one of the chief and most important which is very instrumental for survival. Prime function of the respiratory system is breathing. Inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide is all that takes plays by function of the respiratory organs. Breathing is a process by which oxygen in the air is brought in to the lungs and further in to close contact with blood. The blood absorbs the oxygen and carries to all parts of the body. Simultaneously blood gives up waste matter

Respiratory system Asthma A chronic (long term) lung disease that inflames and narrows the airways‚ asthma causes recurring periods of wheezing ( a sound when you breathe)‚ chest tightness‚ shortness of breath‚ and coughing. The coughing often occurs at night or early in the morning. Asthma is characterized by inflammation of the bronchial tubes with increased production of sticky secretions inside the tubes. People with asthma experience symptoms when that airways tighten‚ inflame or fill with mucus

Respiratory System WebQuest Introduction The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen. The respiratory system does this through breathing. Breathing is a natural process that we use to obtain oxygen‚ unlike eating or drinking to get energy. 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. The respiratory tract is responsible for taking the gases
