The respiratory system has three main functions: (1) to provide oxygen to cells, (2) to remove carbon dioxide from cells, and (3) to remove water from cells. Air passes through the nose, pharynx, trachea, bronchi, and into tiny sacs called alveoli in the lungs where gas exchange occurs between the blood and air. The diaphragm and rib muscles expand the chest during inhalation, allowing air to rush into the lungs due to the created vacuum. During exhalation, the muscles relax and the chest contracts, pushing air back out.
The respiratory system is the network of organs and tissues that help you breathe. It includes your airways, lungs, and blood vessels. The muscles that power your lungs are also part of the respiratory system. These parts work together to move oxygen throughout the body and clean out waste gases like carbon dioxide.

Design of Artificial Respiratory Model.. Know about the respiratory system.
The respiratory system consists of the upper respiratory tract (nasal passages), the airway conduction system (larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and terminal bronchioles), and the lower respiratory tract (alveolar ducts and alveoli). Not all segments of the respiratory system mature at the same pace. The olfactory epithelium matures earliest by PND 7. The lung, however, is not considered mature until PND 21, when alveolarization and microvascular maturation are complete. This chapter will discuss the embryological development (briefly), adult histomorphology, and postnatal histologic development of each major component of the respiratory system.
These slides will help to build an understanding of the respiratory system for the ordinary levels and the A levels students.

Characteristics of normal respiration and deviation
Respiratory system
The respiratory system is the one of vital organs that involve in respiration
Play important role in the intake and exchange of O2 and CO2 .
The respiratory system performs two major tasks:
Exchanging air between the body and the outside environment known as external respiration.
Bringing O2 to the cells and removing CO2 from them referred to as internal respiration.
Parts of respiratory system
Upper respiratory tract: (outside thorax)
Nose
Nasal Cavity
Pharynx
Larynx
Nose:
Also called external nares.
Divided into two halves by the nasal septum.
Contains the paranasal sinuses where air is warmed.
Contains cilia which is responsible for filtering out foreign bodies.
Pharynx:
Common space used by both the respiratory and digestive systems. Commonly called the throat.
Start from the nasal and oral cavities and extends inferiorly near the level of the bifurcation of the larynx and esophagus.
There are 3 types:
Nasopharynx
Oropharynx
Laryngopharynx
Larynx:
Voice box is a short, cylindrical airway - ends in the trachea.
Prevents swallowed materials entering into the lower respiratory tract.
It Passes air into the lower respiratory tract.
Produces sounds.
Supported by cartilage help to held in place by ligaments and muscles.
Voice is produced by vibration of the vocal folds or vocal cords. The vocal folds are a pair of pliable shelves of tissue that stretch across the top of the trachea (windpipe). They are enclosed within the thyroid cartilage. The vocal folds, together with the muscles and cartilages that support them, are known as the larynx.
Biologically, the larynx evolved as a valve to protect the airway and lungs. Thus, it is positioned where the airway and the esophagus separate. The vocal folds open to allow breathing and close during swallowing to prevent food from entering into the lungs and during voicing.
Trachea:
A flexible tube also called windpipe.
Extends through the mediastinum and lies anterior to the esophagus and inferior to the larynx.
Cartilage rings help the trachea to remains open at all times.
Bronchus:
The two large tubes that carry air from your windpipe to your lungs.
Left and right main bronchus in each lung.Â
Each bronchus divided into bronchioles
Lung:
Each lung has a conical shape. Its wide, concave base rests upon the muscular diaphragm.
Its superior part called the apex
Both lungs are supported anteriorly by thoracic wall, laterally, and posteriorly by the rib cage.
Mediastinum
Left lung: divided into 2 lobes by, smaller than the right lung & cardiac notch accommodates the heart
Right lung: divided into 3 lobes by, located more superiorly in the body due to liver on right side
Pleura:
The outer surface of each lung covered by a layer called pleura.
The outer - parietal pleura & the internal - visceral pleura.
Respiration is defined as the transport of oxygen from the outside air to the cells within tissues, and the transport of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction.
The physiological definition of respiration should not be confused with the biochemical definition of respiration, which refers to cellular respiration: the metabolic process by which an organism obtains energy by reacting oxygen with glucose to give water, carbon dioxide and ATP (energy). Although physiologic respiration is necessary to sustain cellular respiration and thus life in animals, the processes are distinct: cellular respiration takes place in individual cells of the organism, while physiologic respiration concerns the bulk flow and transport of metabolites between the organism and the external environment.
Respiratory system is the process of exchange gases oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs through the alveoli,in which oxygen inhaled and carbon dioxide exhaled.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Â
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Section 3: The Respiratory System
What are the functions of the respiratory system?
What structures does air pass through as it travels
to the lungs?
What happens during gas exchange and
breathing?
• 7.5.a Students know plants and animals have levels
of organization for structure and function,
including cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and
the whole organisms.
• 7.5.b Students know organ systems function
because of the contributions of individual organs,
tissues, and cells. The failure of any part can affect
the entire system.
2. Respiratory System Functions
• Your body cells need oxygen
and they get it from the air
you breathe.
• The respiratory system
moves oxygen from the
outside environment into
the body.
• It also removes carbon
dioxide and water from the
body.
3. Taking in Oxygen
• Like a fire: Your cells cannot “burn” the “fuel”
that you eat without oxygen.
• Respiration = the process by which cells
break down simple food molecules such as
glucose to release the energy they contain
– AKA cellular respiration
– Respiration ≠Breathing
5. The Air You Breathe
The air you breathe in
contains several
different gases, shown
in the circle graph on
the left. The air you
breathe out contains
the same gases, but in
the amounts shown in
the circle graph on the
right.
6. The Air You Breathe
Percent of a gas breathed in
or out
•Reading Graphs:
What does each wedge of
the graphs represent?
7. The Air You Breathe
Oxygen; less oxygen is
breathed out than breathed
in—meaning that some must
have been used by the body.
•Interpreting Data:
Based on the data, which gas
is used by the body? Explain.
8. The Air You Breathe
There is a higher percentage
of carbon dioxide in exhaled
air. Carbon dioxide is a waste
product of cellular activity.
•Drawing Conclusions:
Compare the percentage of
carbon dioxide in inhaled air
with the percentage in
exhaled air. How can you
account for the difference?
9. The Air You Breathe
Nitrogen is not used by the
body and is not a waste
product.
–Inferring:
Explain why the percentage
of nitrogen is the same in
both inhaled air and exhaled
air.
10. Systems Working Together
Oxygen from the air and glucose from digested food are
both carried to the cells by the blood. During respiration,
oxygen reacts with glucose to release energy.
11. Path of Air
• Particles in the air
must be filtered out.
• As air travels from the
outside environment
to the lungs, it passes
through the following
structures: nose,
pharynx, trachea, and
bronchia.
• Air is also warmed and
moistened.
12.
13. The Nose (1)
• Air enters into the body through the nose and then into nasal
cavities. Some of the cells lining the nasal cavities produce
mucus.
• Mucus = A thick, sticky liquid produced by the body.
– moistens the air, keeps lining from drying out, traps particles
• Cilia = The hairlike projections on the outside of cells that
move in wavelike manner.
– Swept into your stomach.
• Sneeze
14. The Pharynx (2)
• Pharynx = The throat.
• Both the nose and the mouth connect to the
pharynx.
• Shared with digestive system.
16. The Trachea (3)
• Trachea = The windpipe; a
passage which air moves in
the respiratory system.
• Continue cleaning and
moistening of air.
– Cough
– Choking
• Epiglottis - seals off the
trachea during swallowing
17. The Bronchi (4) and Lungs (5)
• Bronchi = The passages that direct air into the
lungs.
• Lungs = An organ found in air-breathing
vertebrates that exchanges oxygen and carbon
dioxide with the blood.
• Alveoli = Tiny sacs of lung tissue specialized for
the movement of gases between air and blood.
– surrounded by capillaries
– blood picks up oxygen from the air
18. HOW IS FOOD PREVENTED FROM
ENTERING THE TRACHEA?
Reading Checkpoint
19.
20. Gas Exchange
• The walls of both the alveoli and the capillaries are very
thin!
• After air enters an alveolus, oxygen passes though the
wall of the alveolus and then through the capillary wall
into the blood.
• Carbon dioxide and water pass from the blood into the
alveoli.
• This whole process is known as gas exchange.
21. How Gas Exchange Occurs
• Circulatory and respiratory systems work
together
• Pulmonary circulation – carries blood from the
heart to the lungs and back
After air enters an alveolus,
oxygen passes through the wall of
the alveolus and then through the
capillary wall into the blood.
Carbon dioxide and water pass
from the blood into the alveoli.
22.
23. Surface Area For Gas Exchange
• 300 million alveoli, 70 square meters
24. WHAT GASES ARE EXCHANGED
ACROSS THE ALVEOLI?
Reading Checkpoint
25. Surface Area
Surface area refers to the total area of all the surfaces of a three-
dimensional object. Consider a cube, which has six equal sides. Each
side measures 2 cm by 2 cm.
1. To find the surface area of the cube, first calculate the area of one
of the six sides:
Area = length x width = 2 cm x 2 cm = 4 cm2
Each side has an area of 4 cm2.
2. Then, add the areas of the six sides together:
4 cm2 + 4 cm2 + 4 cm2 + 4 cm2 + 4 cm2 + 4 cm2 = 24 cm2
The surface area of the cube is 24 cm2.
26. How You Breathe
When you breathe, the actions
of your rib muscles and
diaphragm expand or contract
your chest. As a result, air flows
in or out.
The more oxygen you need, the
faster you breathe.
27. Muscle for Breathing
• Diaphragm = A large
muscle located at the
bottom of a
mammal’s rib cage
that functions in
breathing.
28. The Process of Breathing
• When you breathe, the actions of your rib muscles
and diaphragm cause your chest to expand or contact.
• As a result, air flows in or out.
• Vacuum – causes air to rush into your lungs
29. WHAT MUSCLES CAUSE THE CHEST
TO EXPAND DURING BREATHING?
Reading Checkpoint
30. Relating Breathing and Speaking
• Larynx = The voice box.
• Vocal chords = Folds of
connective tissue that
stretch across the
opening of the larynx and
produce a persons voice.
• Air moving over the vocal
cords causes them to
vibrate and produce
sound.
