What Is Respiration?
What Is Respiration?
In biology, respiration means different things.
Cellular respiration is the release of energy from the breakdown of food in the presence of oxygen
(occurs in the?????)
At the organism level, respiration is the process of gas exchange—the release of carbon dioxide and the uptake of oxygen that occurs between RBCs and alveoli
Breathing is the actual mechanical intake of air

Breathing
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

How Breathing Is Controlled
How Breathing Is Controlled
Breathing is controlled by the medulla oblongata.
The medulla oblongata monitors carbon dioxide in the blood.
As carbon dioxide increases, nerve impulses make the diaphragm contract, bringing air into the lungs.
The higher the carbon dioxide level, the stronger the impulses.

RESPIRATION
Alveoli are grouped in clusters.
A network of capillaries surrounds each alveolus. Pulmonary

Gas Exchange
RESPIRATION
Gas exchange takes place in the alveoli.
Oxygen diffuses into the blood.
Carbon dioxide in the blood diffuses into the alveolus.
