Breathing is the process of inhaling air rich in oxygen and exhaling air rich in carbon dioxide. Inhalation is taking air into the body through the nose and mouth, while exhalation is releasing air from the lungs through the mouth and nose. Air travels through the windpipe into the lungs, where gas exchange takes place in tiny air sacs called alveoli in the lungs. Oxygen passes from the alveoli into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide passes from the bloodstream into the alveoli and is then exhaled.

3. BREATHING
 BREATHING MEANS TAKING IN AIR
RICH IN OXYGEN AND GIVING OUT
AIR RICH IN CARBONDIOXIDE.

4. INHALATION
 TAKING IN OF AIR RICH IN OXYGEN
INTO THE BODYIS CALLED AS
INHALATION.

5. EXHALATION
 GIVING OUT OF AIR RICH IN
CARBONDIOXIDE IS KNOWN AS
EXHALATION

6. BREATHING RATE
 THE NUMBER OF TIMES A PERSON
BREATHS IN A MINUTE IS TERMED
AS BREATHING RATE.

11. Structure and Function of
Alveoli
 The Alveoli are where gaseous
exchange takes place. For this they
have:
 an enormous surface area
 a moist lining
 very thin walls
 an excellent blood supply.
 Oxygen passes into the blood.
 Carbon dioxide passes out of the
blood.

 Alveoli
 Ribs
 Intercostal muscles
 Diaphragm
 Plural fluid
– carries air from the mouth
– one goes to each lung
– small branching tubes split
bronchi
– air sack where gasses are
exchanged
– protect the heart and lungs
– pull ribs and sternum up and
out
– moves up and down during
breathing

 Gills and Gas Exchange

21. Tracheal Breathing
Insects, and some other invertebrates,
exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide
between their tissues and the air by a
system of air-filled tubes called
tracheae.
Tracheae open to the outside through
small holes called spiracles. In the
grasshopper, the first and third
segments of the thorax have a spiracle
on each side. Another 8 pairs of
spiracles are arranged in a line on either
side of the abdomen.
The spiracles are guarded by
valves controlled by muscles that
enables the grasshopper to open and
close them;
hairs that filter out dust as the air enters
the spiracles.

22. Spiracles open into large tracheal tubes. These, in turn, lead to ever-finer
branches. The branches penetrate to every part of the body. At their extreme
ends, called tracheoles, they may be less than 1 µm in diameter, and are
probably filled with liquid. Every cell in the insect's body is adjacent, or very
close to, the end of a tracheole.
