The human body requires many things to function. One of the most important requirements is oxygen. Oxygen is used by the entire body to make energy. The Respiratory System collects and filters the air we breath to get that precious oxygen. The respiratory(breathing) process begins when you inhale and air is taken in through the mouth and/or nose. The air flows into the pharynx(throat) and enters the trachea(windpipe). The air then flows into one of two bronchi‚ left bronchus and right bronchus.

The respiratory system organs all work together‚ like a engine in a car‚ they all have a important role. Some

Respiratory system: The respiratory system is a combination of the Circulatory and Pulmonary systems feeding oxygen and nutrients to cells all around the body. These systems allow oxygen to enter the body‚ and be circulated around the body at a varying rate. These two systems work in conjunction with each other and have various rates of operation that are usually in as close a correlation as possible. Circulatory System: The circulatory system’s primary responsibility is to circulate oxygenated
