FunctionsDraw a table to show the structure and
functions of each part in the respiratory system.

The LungsEach lung contains:
A system of branching tubes called bronchioles.
Millions of alveoli at the end of the finest bronchioles.
A large number of capillaries around each alveolus.
No muscle fibres.
![Page 10: Respiratory System](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162cc550346895dd35836/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The large number of alveoli and capillaries:Give a large surface area for gas exchange
Make the lungs very efficient at obtaining oxygen and eliminating carbon dioxide.
The linings of the bronchioles contain:Cells which secrete mucus to trap dust
and bacteriaCells with cilia to ‘waft’ foreign particles
towards the pharynx to be expelled from the body by coughing.

DiaphragmA muscular sheet that divides the lungs
from the digestive organs in the abdomen – it extends across the bottom of the ribcage.
When relaxed, it is domed slightly upwards.
![Page 12: Respiratory System](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162cc550346895dd35836/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Intercostal MusclesMuscles attached to the ribs.They are used to move the ribcage:
Upwards and outwards – external intercostals
Downwards and inwards – internal intercostals.

VentilationVentilation is the movement of air into and out
of the lungs (breathing).Lungs are made to expand and contract by
movements of the ribs and diaphragm.Works based on volume and pressure changes
in the thorax during inhalation and exhalation.When volume increases, pressure will drop.When volume decreases, pressure will increase.Air will move from an area of high
pressure to an area of low pressure.

Alveoli and Gas ExchangeThe exchange of gases between the air and
blood takes place in the alveoli.Gas exchange relies on diffusion; therefore
concentration gradients need to be maintained.
Oxygen diffuses from air in the alveoli into the blood stream because it moves from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
![Page 22: Respiratory System](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070421/568162cc550346895dd35836/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Oxygen combines with the haemoglobin protein molecule in the red blood cells to form oxyhaemoglobin.
RBC continuously carry oxygen away from the alveoli, so a concentration gradient is maintained.
Carbon dioxide moves from the blood to the air in the alveoli due to diffusion also.
CO2 is transported in the plasma.

The Efficiency of Gas ExchangeGas exchange in the alveoli is very efficient
because:Each alveolus is surrounded by a dense
network of capillaries.There are many alveoli creating a very large
surface area in contact with the capillaries.The walls of the alveoli are very thin (one cell
thick) so gases can pass easily through them.The wall of the alveoli are moist to help
gases dissolve.

Excretory Organs – GillsADVANTAGES:No drying out of respiratory surface.Carbon dioxide easily diffuses into
surrounding water.Countercurrent flow of blood increases rate
of gaseous exchange = gills are extremely efficient.
DISADVANTAGES:More energy is required to ventilate gills than
lungs.There is less oxygen in water.
