Function of the Respiratory System-to exchange gases with the cardiovascular
system and the environment-Oxygen IN, Carbon Dioxide OUT
capillary

Types of Respiration (3 types)1. External Respiration- exchange of gases
between the atmosphere and your lungs2. Internal Respiration- exchange of gases
between the blood and body cells3. Cellular Respiration- Oxygen in the cells
help breakdown glucose to produce ATP (energy). Carbon Dioxide is produced as a waste product.

• Nose: contains small hairs that filter particulates.
• Nasal Cavity: contain cilia that act as an additional filter of the incoming air. Also
contains mucous that protects tissues, warms, and moistens the air.
• Pharynx: passageway leading to the trachea (contains 2 passageways for food and
air)

Nose
• Epiglottis: keeps food from entering the trachea.
• Larynx: voice box, vocal cords, ‘Adams Apple’.
• Trachea (windpipe): leads to the bronchi tubes, made of cartilage.
Mucous and cilia lined.

Nose
• Bronchus: 2 tubes that split off from the trachea, each lead to lung. Mucous and cilia
lined.
• Bronchioles: branchlike extensions of the main bronchi.
• Alveoli: sacs in lungs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged by diffusion
between air and blood (capillaries). HEALTHY HUMAN HAS 300 MILLION ALVEOLI

Taking a Breath-Inspiration: process of inhaling air
Nitrogen 78%Oxygen 21%Carbon Dioxide .03%Other gases .97%
-Expiration: process of exhaling air
Nitrogen 78%Oxygen 16.54%Carbon Dioxide 4.49%Other gases .97%
CPR works because we don’t ONLY exhale Carbon Dioxide. We exhale a good amount of Oxygen as well
-Lungs have a total capacity of approx 4-5 liters-You normally inhale approx .5 Liters-Exhaling, you have a residual volume of air left in your lungs of about1 Liter

Gas Exchange in the Lungs-Occurs in the alveoli which are surrounded by capillaries.-Oxygen that is inhaled diffuses through alveolar
membranes into the capillaries-Carbon dioxide diffuses through the capillaries into the
alveolar membranes to be exhaled
**Diffusion-substances move from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration

Transport of Oxygen95-98% of oxygen that diffuses into the blood
moves into the red blood cellsBinds to hemoglobin
Protein that contains 4 iron atoms Each iron atom can attach to 1 oxygen molecule
At body tissues, oxygen releases from hemoglobin and diffuses across capillaries into tissue cells

Transport of Carbon DioxideConcentration of CO2 is higher in cells
Diffuses into blood7% dissolves into plasma
23% binds to hemoglobin70% transported as bicarbonate ions

Breathing
![Page 12: The Respiratory System](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815f2e550346895dcdface/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Respiration Control-Rate of breathing controlled by brain and
brain stem-monitors levels of CO2 in blood-high levels of CO2 sends message to
brain, which tells the diaphragm to breathe faster and deeper
- When CO2 levels are back to normal, message is sent to slow down the breathing rate
-Brain control centers can be overridden -holding your breath-brain stem takes control and normal
breathing resumes

Respiratory Illnesses
-Asthma: contraction of the bronchioles due to an allergic reaction.
-Bronchitis: bacterial infection in the bronchioles.
-Emphysema: rupturing of the alveoli (smoking).
-Pneumonia: virus and bacterial infection (severe).
-Lung Cancer
