The inhaled Oxygen diffusesinto the blood and then intocells where it is used forrespiration. CO2 and H2Oare then diffused back into
the blood stream.

Causes ExternalAttacks may be triggered by Allergens, which can be pollen, dust, animal hair, etc.
Causes InternalDuring an attack the bronchioles become narrow.10% of children have asthma and it is increasing in developed countries.

Control of Human Breathing Higher Level
Human breathing is controlled by the Medulla Oblongata.
Carbon Dioxide builds up in the blood from Respiration.
Carbon dioxide is acidic and causes the blood pH to drop.
This drop is sensed by the brain and causes the lungs to inhale.
So, our Oxygen intake is controlled by CO2 levels (as in plants).
