Breathing and respiratory
- Breathing
- Breathing is voluntary, but you
can make it stop.
- Exhaling
- When you breathe out, all the
muscle in your body relax.
Your rib cage moves down,
your diaphargm arches up
and the volume of your chest
returns back tonormal
- Inhaling
- When you breathe in, your
rib cage muscles contract &
flatten. That causes the
space in your chest to
expand and the air is sucked in
to fill in the space available.
- Exercise and
energy
- Exercising causes more energy to be used. That
causes repiration to be speed up as well. Your
body responses too it by: 1- Breathing faster and
deeper And 2- Your heart beating faster. yuor body
gets energy from oxygen and food.
- Respiratory
system
- Nasal cavity
- Warms, moistens and
cleans the air from
bacteria
- Trachea to alveoli
- The moistened air passes through the
trachea. The trachea divides into 2 bronchi.
Each bronchus divides into bronchioles
making the alveoli, which provides a larger
surface area making it easier to breathe
- Gas exchange
- The alveoli cells are only 1 cell thick and are
surrounded by tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
Cells use oxygen to release food from glucose which
creates carbon dioxide
