The document summarizes the key components and functions of the respiratory system. It describes the organs that make up the upper respiratory tract (nose, nasal cavity, sinuses, pharynx) and lower respiratory tract (larynx, trachea, bronchial tree, lungs). It explains how the lungs receive oxygen and remove carbon dioxide through gas exchange that occurs in the alveoli. Finally, it outlines the two phases of breathing - inhalation which draws air into the lungs, and exhalation which allows air out through movements of the diaphragm and ribs.
