Respiration Process/
Respiratory Problem
/Taking Care of the
Respiratory System

2. Whydowe
breathe?

3. What is Human Respiration?
 obtain oxygen,
 eliminate carbon dioxide.

5. Inspiration
Expiration
2 Phases
of
Breathing

6. The Mechanisms of
Breathing
O2 enters
The diaphragm
contracts or
flattens
The intercostal
muscles raise
the ribs
C02 exits
The diaphragm
relaxes
The intercostal
muscles lower
the ribs

controls the rhythm
and rate of
breathing?

12. What are the Organs of the
Respiratory System?
 Nose
 Pharynx
 Larynx
 Trachea
 Bronchial tree
 Lungs

13. Organs of the Respiratory system
 Nose
 Pharynx
 Larynx
 Trachea
 Bronchi
 Lungs –
alveoli

17. Human Respiratory System

18. REVIEW…
STRUCTURE FUNCTION
nose /
nasal
cavity
warms, moistens, & filters air
as it is inhaled
pharynx
(throat)
passageway for air, leads to
trachea
larynx
the voice box, where vocal
chords are located

19. REVIEW…
STRUCTURE FUNCTION
Trachea
(windpipe)
keeps the windpipe "open" and is lined
with fine hairs called cilia which filter
air before it reaches the lungs
bronchi
two branches at the end of the trachea,
each lead to a lung
bronchioles
a network of smaller branches leading
from the bronchi into the lung tissue &
ultimately to air sacs
alveoli
the functional respiratory units in the
lung where gases are exchanged

20. What are the
components of upper
and lower respiratory
tract?

23. Checking your Understanding
Which of the following sites would be the most
lethal if obstructed by a foreign body?
a. Right bronchus
b. Left bronchus
c. Trachea
ANSWER:

24. Respiration Includes
Pulmonary Ventilation
External Respiration
Transport of Respiratory
Gases
Internal Respiration

25. Pulmonary Ventilation
Air moves in and out
of lungs.

26. External Respiration
 Gas exchange between blood and air at alveoli.
 O2 (oxygen) in air diffuses into blood.
 CO2 (carbon dioxide) in blood diffuses into air.

27.  Brings O2 from lungs  cells of the body.
 Takes CO2 from the cells throughout the body and
return to the lungs to be exhaled.
Transport of
Respiratory Gases

28.  Gas exchange in capillaries between blood and tissue
cells.
 O2 in blood diffuses into tissues.
 CO2 waste in tissues diffuses into blood.
Internal Respiration

29. Respiration Includes
Pulmonary Ventilation
External Respiration
Transport of Respiratory
Gases
Internal Respiration

30. What is a Respiratory Volume?
Different volumes of air move in and out of
lungs with different intensities of breathing.

32. Respiratory Volumes
Amount of air that moves in or
out of the lungs during a normal
breath
Amount of air that can be
forcefully inhaled following a
normal inhalation
Amount of air that can be
forcefully exhaled following a
normal exhalation
Tidal Volume
Inspiratory
Reserve
Volume
Expiratory
Reserve
Volume

33. Respiratory Volumes (cont.)
Amount of air that can be
forcefully exhaled after the
deepest inhalation possible
Volume of air that always
remains in the lungs even after a
forceful exhalation
The total amount of air the lungs
can hold
Residual
Volume
Total Lung
Capacity
Vital
Capacity

34. Checking your Understanding
___ Amount of air that moves
during a normal breath.
___ Amount of air that always
remains in the lungs.
___ Total amount of air the lungs
can hold .
___ Amount of air forcefully
exhaled after deepest
inhalation possible.
A. Total lung
capacity
B. Residual
volume
C. Tidal volume
D. Vital capacity
Match the following:
ANSWER:
C
A
B
D
