  • OXYGEN- required for the body cell to synthesize chemical energy molecule
  • Carbon Dioxide- is a prof of ATP production and must be removed from the blood
  • SEVEN(7) STRUCTURES THAT MAKE UP RESPIRATORY SYSTEM:
    • EXTERNAL NOSE
    • NASAL CAVITY
    • PHARYNX
    • LARYNX
    • TRACHEA
    • BRONCHI
    • LUNGS
  • RESPIRATION - what we call breathing.
  • External nose- encloses the chamber for air inspiration. 
  • Nasal cavity. is a cleaning, warming, and humidifying chamber for inspired air.
  • Pharynx- is commonly called the throat. It serves as a shared passageway for food and air.

  • Trachea-is commonly known as the windpipe. It
    serves as an air-cleaning tube to funnel inspired air to each lung.
  • Bronchi- are tubes that direct air into the lungs.
  • Lungs- is a labyrinth of air tubes and a complex network of air sacs, called alveoli, and capillaries. '
  • TWO 2 MAJOR TYPES OF RESPIRATION WITHIN THE BODY
    • EXTERNAL RESPIRATION
    • INTERNAL RESPIRATION
  • EXTERNAL RESPIRATION- movem of gases between the lungs and at the blood
  • INTERNAL RESPIRATION- movement of gasses between the blood and body cells
