RESPIRATORY SYSTEM A complete‚ schematic view of the human respiratory system with their parts and functions. Latin: systema respiratorium The respiratory system (or ventilatory system) is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for the process of respiration in an organism. The respiratory system is involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between an organism and the environment. The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply

The lymphatic system The lymphatic system belongs to the circulatory system; it consists of a network of lymphatic vessels which carry around fluid which is known as lymph. These carry the fluid towards the heart in different directions. These vessels are spread out the human body. The vessels are similar to that of the circulatory systems vessels as it consists of smaller lymphatic capillaries that form vessels. Lymph fluid is when the tissue fluid is collected though the lymph capillaries. When

The respiratory system of the horse is well adapted to athletic exercise‚ with unrestricted upper airway diameters‚ and a large lung capacity afforded by 18 ribs. These combine to enable air intakes of up to 1800 litres per minute in a galloping horse. Volumes of up to 300 litres of blood are pumped at high pressure through small lung capillaries surrounding 10 million air sacs to take up and deliver over 70 litres of oxygen per minute to the working muscles at the gallop. As a result‚ any restriction

The Circulatory System The circulatory system in anatomy and physiology is the course taken by the blood through the arteries‚ capillaries‚ and veins and back to the heart. In humans and the higher vertebrates‚ the heart is made up of four chambers the right and left auricles‚ or atria‚ and the right and left ventricles. The right side of the heart pumps oxygen-poor blood from the cells of the body back to the lungs for new oxygen; the left side of the heart receives blood rich in oxygen from

body is made up of a number of systems that all interlink and produce everything we need in order to survive. Within the body there is the digestive system; the circulatory system‚ the nervous system‚ the muscular system‚ the skeletal system and the reproductive system. These systems are all part of one another and they share organs‚ tissues and cells and that is how they interlink. The diagram above shows each system and where they are located in the body. Each system is shown in a different image

How to Maintain A Computer System Start a notebook that includes information on your system. This notebook should be a single source of information about your entire system‚ both hardware and software. Each time you make a change to your system‚ adding or removing hardware or software‚ record the change. Always include the serial numbers of all equipment‚ vendor support numbers‚ and print outs for key system files. Secondly periodically review disk directories and delete unneeded files. Files
