1. The respiratory system supplies oxygen to the blood and removes carbon dioxide through a process called gas exchange that takes place in alveoli in the lungs. 2. It is made up of the nasal passages, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs and works through the processes of external respiration which exchanges gases between the body and environment, and internal respiration which transports gases between the blood and cells. 3. Breathing is regulated through the contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm and rib cage which expands and contracts the chest cavity to inhale and exhale air.

**The respiratory system supplies the blood with oxygen so that the blood can deliver oxygen to all parts of the body and also removes carbon dioxide waste that cells produce. **Respiratory System Structure • Nasal Cavity: Passes air through nose • Mouth: Passes air through • Pharynx: The throat. Cone shaped passageway leading to trachea. • Trachea: Windpipe. Main tube connecting nose/mouth to lungs. • Epiglottis: Flap that covers the entrance to the trachea. • Lungs: Main organ of the respiratory system.
Respiratory System Structure • Bronchi: Two tubes inside of lungs that air passes through to the bronchioles. • Bronchioles: Small branching out tubes divided into alveoli. • Alveoli: Tiny air sacs that do the oxidation and the exhale of carbon dioxide. • Capillaries: Blood vessels that are imbedded in the walls of the alveoli. While in the capillaries the blood discharges carbon dioxide into the alveoli and takes up oxygen from the air in the alveoli. • Cilia: Hair like structures that remove dust and dirt from the air.
Respiratory System: Oxygen Delivery System The respiratory system is the set of organs that allows a person to breathe and exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. The integrated system of organs involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment and including the nasal passages, larynx, trachea, bronchial tubes, and lungs. The respiratory system performs two major tasks:  Exchanging air between the body and the outside environment known as external respiration.  Bringing oxygen to the cells and removing carbon dioxide from them referred to as internal respiration.

Helps regulate blood pH Breathing  Breathing (pulmonary ventilation). consists of two cyclic phases:  Inhalation, also called inspiration - draws gases into the lungs.  Exhalation, also called expiration - forces gases out of the lungs.
Air from the outside environment enters the nose or mouth during inspiration (inhalation). Composed of the nose and nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, pharynx (throat), larynx. All part of the conducting portion of the respiratory system. Nostril Mouth Nasal Cavity Throat (pharynx) Voice box(Larynx)
Nose  Also called external nares.  Divided into two halves by the nasal septum.  Contains the paranasal sinuses where air is warmed.  Contains cilia which is responsible for filtering out foreign bodies. Nose and Nasal Cavities Nasal concha Sphenoid sinus Internal naris Nasopharynx External naris Frontal sinus Middle nasal concha Inferior nasal concha
Internal nares - opening to exterior External nares - opening to pharynx Nasal conchae - folds in the mucous membrane that increase air turbulence and ensures that most air contacts the mucous membranes Provides and airway for respiration Moistens and warms entering air Filters and cleans inspired air Resonating chamber for speech - detects odors in the air stream
PharynxCommon space used by both the respiratory and digestive systems. Commonly called the throat. Originates posterior to the nasal and oral cavities and extends inferiorly near the level of the bifurcation of the larynx and esophagus. Common pathway for both air and food. Walls are lined by a mucosa and contain skeletal muscles that are primarily used for swallowing. Flexible lateral walls are distensible in order to force swallowed food into the esophagus.
Three Sections of the Pharynx Nasopharynx contains the pharyngeal tonsils (adenoids) which aid in the body’s immune defense. Oropharynx back portion of the mouth that contains the palatine tonsils which aid in the body’s immune defense. Laryngopharynx bottom section of the pharynx where the respiratory tract divides into the esophagus and the larynx. Nasopharynx Oropharynx Laryngophar ynx
Larynx Voice box is a short, somewhat cylindrical airway ends in the trachea. Prevents swallowed materials from entering the lower respiratory tract. Conducts air into the lower respiratory tract. Produces sounds. Supported by a framework of nine pieces of cartilage (three individual pieces and three cartilage pairs) that are held in place by ligaments and muscles. Hyoid Bone Epiglottis Thyrohyoid Membrane Cricothyr oid Ligament Cricothyr oid MusclesCricothyroi d Cartilage Trachea Thyroid Cartilage
Trachea A flexible tube also called windpipe. Extends through the mediastinum and lies anterior to the esophagus and inferior to the larynx. Cartilage rings reinforce and provide rigidity to the tracheal wall to ensure that the trachea remains open at all times. At the level of the sternal angle, the trachea bifurcates into two smaller tubes, called the right and left primary bronchi. Each primary bronchus projects laterally toward each lung. Trachea Bronchi Larynx
Lungs  Each lung has a conical shape. Its wide, concave base rests upon the muscular diaphragm.  Its superior region called the apex projects superiorly to a point that is slightly superior and posterior to the clavicle.  Both lungs are bordered by the thoracic wall anteriorly, laterally, and posteriorly, and supported by the rib cage.  Toward the midline, the lungs are separated from each other by the mediastinum.  The relatively broad, rounded surface in contact with the thoracic wall is called the costal surface of the lung.
Lungs Left lung • divided into 2 lobes by oblique fissure • smaller than the right lung • cardiac notch accommodates the heart Right lung • divided into 3 lobes by oblique and horizontal fissure • located more superiorly in the body due to liver on right side
Pleura  The outer surface of each lung and the adjacent internal thoracic wall are lined by a serous membrane called pleura.  The outer surface of each lung is tightly covered by the visceral pleura.  while the internal thoracic walls, the lateral surfaces of the mediastinum, and the superior surface of the diaphragm are lined by the parietal pleura.  The parietal and visceral pleural layers are continuous at the hilus of each lung Pleural Cavities The potential space between the serous membrane layers is a pleural cavity.  The pleural membranes produce a thin, serous pleural fluid that circulates in the pleural cavity and acts as a lubricant, ensuring minimal friction during breathing.  Pleural effusion – pleuritis with too much fluid

 Air enters your lungs through a system of pipes called the bronchi.  The alveoli are where the important work of gas exchange takes place between the air and your blood. Covering each alveolus is a whole network of little blood vessel called capillaries,  It is important that the air in the alveoli and the blood in the capillaries are very close together, so that oxygen and carbon dioxide can move (or diffuse) between them.  When you breathe in, air comes down the trachea and through the bronchi into the alveoli.  This fresh air has lots of oxygen in it, and some of this oxygen will travel across the walls of the alveoli into your blood stream.  Travelling in the opposite direction is carbon dioxide, which crosses from the blood in the capillaries into the air in the alveoli and is then breathed out.  In this way, you bring in to your body the oxygen that you need to live, and get rid of the waste product carbon dioxide.
How Lungs work? Branch of Pulmonary vein Branch of Pulmonary artery Bronchiole Terminal Bronchiole Respiratory Bronchiole Capillary beds Alveoli
Breathing  Lungs are sealed in pleural membranes inside the chest cavity.  At the bottom of the cavity is a large, flat muscle known as the diaphragm.
Breathing  During inhalation, the diaphragm contracts and the rib cage rises up.  This expands the volume of the chest cavity.  The chest cavity is sealed, so this creates a partial vacuum inside the cavity.  Atmospheric pressure fills the lungs as air rushes into the breathing passages.
Breathing  Often exhaling is a passive event.  When the rib cage lowers and the diaphragm relaxes, pressure in the chest cavity is greater than atmospheric pressure.  Air is pushed out of the lungs. Exhalation Rib cage lowers Air Exhaled
How the respiratory system works Air that flows from the mouth or nasal cavity travels through the pharynx and moves down to the trachea. Then the air moves to the bronchi tubes as they the lungs.Once the air gets in the lungs,the air enters separate branches called the bronchiole.C02 passes from the blood into the alveoli and is then exhaled. Oxygen travels from the lungs through the bloodstream to the cells in all parts of the body. cells use the oxygen as fuel and give off C02 as waste gas .The waste gas is carried by the bloodstream back to the lungs to be exhaled.
How to keep your respiratory system healthy *Try to Avoid: -Smoking -Being around a smoker(SecondHand) -Inhaling other chemicals and drugs. -Being around dusty or thick polluted air. *What to do: - Exercise - Eat healthy - Go to annual doctor checkups
