The Respiratory System – Part 1
“She talks so that you can
barely hear her.
She talks on the exhale,
because she cannot talk on
the inhale which means
that her sentences are
interrupted 15 times each
minute, for the breathing
machine to make her
breathe, which makes
conversations with her
quite leisurely, long pauses
in the sentences, and
everyone learns to be
patient …” Lorenzo Milam, writing
about his sister, 1984

Why respiration?
Why does an animal need oxygen?
Why does it need to get rid of carbon dioxide?
The animal needs energy to live
It gets it by oxidising glucose to carbon dioxide and water.
The energy it stores as ATP (initially)
The oxygen it gets from the air via the respiratory system
cardiovascular system every cell
The carbon dioxide it gets rid of in the opposite direction
from every cell cardiovascular system respiratory
system
Background – introduction:
![Page 7: The Respiratory System Part 1 - Charles Sturt University · Learning Objectives o Outline the functions of the respiratory tract. o Describe the gross anatomy of the respiratory system.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f8fe8512c064361876ba64a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Overview of Respiration
Divided between external respiration (breathing or ventilation +
cardiovascular transport) and internal (cellular) respiration
1. External respiration = transporting O2 and CO2 to and
from the cells
Exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between
atmosphere and body tissues
2. Internal respiration = cell metabolism to use O2 and
produce CO2
Oxidative phosphorylation (remember your muscle lectures)
Occasionally anaerobic glycolysis (as in intensive muscular
exercise)
![Page 8: The Respiratory System Part 1 - Charles Sturt University · Learning Objectives o Outline the functions of the respiratory tract. o Describe the gross anatomy of the respiratory system.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f8fe8512c064361876ba64a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1. External Respiration
Pulmonary ventilation (process of
breathing)
Exchange between lungs and blood
Transport of O2 and CO2 in blood
Exchange of gases between blood
and body tissues

2. Internal (Cellular) Respiration
We won’t talk much about
internal respiration in
these lectures.
You’ll cover it elsewhere
in your course – as in
your previous muscle
lectures.
Mitochondria in
cells use O2
The CO2 is waste
![Page 10: The Respiratory System Part 1 - Charles Sturt University · Learning Objectives o Outline the functions of the respiratory tract. o Describe the gross anatomy of the respiratory system.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f8fe8512c064361876ba64a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Back to external respiration …
Outline of the functions of the respiratory tract.
What does it do? Why is it needed?
o Gas exchange: every cell in the body needs oxygen to survive: O2 goes in (inspired), CO2 comes out (expired)
o pH control: regulation of acid-base balance of blood: CO2 is an acidic gas, so if it in the blood, then the blood becomes more acidic.
o Thermoregulation: e.g. panting in the dog. Dog has only a few sweat glands in the skin.
o Warms and humidifies air to protect lungs. Loses some water too.
o Filters air and can generate immune response: to protect lungs from infective agents
o Vocalisation and voice projection
o Sense of smell: detection of olfactory stimuli. Warning of dangers.

Efficient gas exchange involves both respiratory &
circulatory systems:
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing – the movement of air
into and out of the lungs)
Exchange of O2 & CO2 between lung air space & blood
(by diffusion)
Transport of O2 & CO2 in blood
Exchange of O2 & CO2 between blood & cells / tissues
(by diffusion)

Pressure changes within the thorax during respiration
and the effect on gas movement
Movement of air into and out of the lungs is called
pulmonary ventilation
Movement of air is an example of mass flow driven
by pressure gradients
Air moves down a pressure gradient (high
pressure to low pressure)
Inspiration
Pressure in alveoli < atmospheric pressure so air moves in
Expiration
Pressure in alveoli > atmospheric pressure so air moves out
