Respiratory System(Mammalian)

What is the Function of the Respiratory System?

• Inhale oxygen ---> cellular respiration • Exhale carbon dioxide --> produced from

cellular respiration • Provide an area for gas exchange

Page 3: Respiratory System (Mammalian) · PDF file– bronchioles – alveoli – diaphragm – pharynx – epiglottis – mouth. Structure ( describe what it is made of ) Function (what does

The Human Respiratory System

• nasal cavity - it warms, moistens, filters the air - mucous and hairs help in this function

turbinate bones

The Human Respiratory System• larynx - can be closed off by the epiglottis - contains the vocal cords - enlarged part of the trachea - enclosed by cartilage

Page 5: Respiratory System (Mammalian) · PDF file– bronchioles – alveoli – diaphragm – pharynx – epiglottis – mouth. Structure ( describe what it is made of ) Function (what does

The Human Respiratory System• trachea - aka windpipe - pathway to lungs - walls are supported by cartilage rings

Page 6: Respiratory System (Mammalian) · PDF file– bronchioles – alveoli – diaphragm – pharynx – epiglottis – mouth. Structure ( describe what it is made of ) Function (what does

• trachea - aka windpipe - pathway to lungs - walls are supported by cartilage rings - lined with goblet cells & ciliated cells - produce mucous & are lined with cilia - help to clean out the lungs

Partner A - Explain what smoking does to cilia. Partner B - Explain back & be sure to include additional facts that may have been forgotten.

The Human Respiratory System

• bronchi • (right & left bronchus) • branches of trachea

that lead into both lungs

• bronchioles • smaller branches of the

bronchi

The Human Respiratory System

• Alveoli - “grape-like” sacs found at the end of bronchioles -surrounded by network of capillaries - exchange of oxygen & carbon dioxide occurs here - fragile; walls of alveoli are one-cell thick -surrounded by a moist protein ---> why do alveoli need to be moist?

NB: The respiratory system & the circulatory system are connected at the alveoli.

The Human Respiratory System• diaphragm - strong muscle that is found under the lungs - involved in breathing
