The respiratory system (also respiratory apparatus, ventilatory system) is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for gas exchange in animals and plants. The anatomy and physiology that make this happen varies greatly, depending on the size of the organism, the environment in which it lives and its evolutionary history. In land animals the respiratory surface is internalized as linings of the lungs. Gas exchange in the lungs occurs in millions of small air sacs; in mammals and reptiles these are called alveoli, and in birds they are known as atria. These microscopic air sacs have a very rich blood supply, thus bringing the air into close contact with the blood.These air sacs communicate with the external environment via a system of airways, or hollow tubes, of which the largest is the trachea, which branches in the middle of the chest into the two main bronchi. These enter the lungs where they branch into progressively narrower secondary and tertiary bronchi that branch into numerous smaller tubes, the bronchioles. In birds the bronchioles are termed parabronchi. It is the bronchioles, or parabronchi that generally open into the microscopic alveoli in mammals and atria in birds. Air has to be pumped from the environment into the alveoli or atria by the process of breathing which involves the muscles of respiration.
In most fish, and a number of other aquatic animals (both vertebrates and invertebrates) the respiratory system consists of gills, which are either partially or completely external organs, bathed in the watery environment. This water flows over the gills by a variety of active or passive means. Gas exchange takes place in the gills which consist of thin or very flat filaments and lammelae which expose a very large surface area of highly vascularized tissue to the water.
Other animals, such as insects, have respiratory systems with very simple anatomical features, and in amphibians even the skin plays a vital role in gas exchange. Plants also have respiratory systems but the directionality of gas exchange can be opposite to that in animals. The respiratory system in plants includes anatomical features such as stomata, that are found in various parts of the plant.
The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.
The lymphatic system is a network of tissues, vessels and organs that work together to move a colorless, watery fluid called lymph back into your circulatory system (your bloodstream).
Some 20 liters of plasma flow through your body’s arteries and smaller arteriole blood vessels and capillaries every day. After delivering nutrients to the body’s cells and tissues and receiving their waste products, about 17 liters are returned to the circulation by way of veins. The remaining three liters seep through the capillaries and into your body’s tissues. The lymphatic system collects this excess fluid, now called lymph, from tissues in your body and moves it along until it's ultimately returned to your bloodstream.
Your lymphatic system has many functions. Its key functions include:
Maintains fluid levels in your body: As just described, the lymphatic system collects excess fluid that drains from cells and tissue throughout your body and returns it to your bloodstream, which is then recirculated through your body.
Absorbs fats from the digestive tract: Lymph includes fluids from your intestines that contain fats and proteins and transports it back to your bloodstream.
Protects your body against foreign invaders: The lymphatic system is part of the immune system. It produces and releases lymphocytes (white blood cells) and other immune cells that monitor and then destroy the foreign invaders — such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi — that may enter your body.
Transports and removes waste products and abnormal cells from the lymph.
A tissue is a group of connected cells that have a similar function within an organism. There are four basic types of tissue in the body of all animals, including the human body. These make up all the organs, structures and other contents of the body.
The lymphatic system carries fluid lost from capillaries back to the bloodstream through lymphatic vessels and ducts. It also transports fat and plays a major role in immunity. Lymph nodes along lymphatic pathways contain lymphocytes and macrophages that fight microbes. The tonsils, spleen, and thymus are lymphatic organs - the tonsils trap pathogens in the mouth and throat, the spleen filters the blood and destroys old red blood cells, and the thymus matures T cells that respond to foreign substances.
The document describes the anatomy and structures of the heart. It discusses:
- The heart is surrounded by the pericardium, a double-walled sac that has an outer fibrous layer and inner serous layers separated by fluid.
- The heart has four chambers - two upper atria that receive blood and two lower ventricles that pump blood out. Blood flows through valves between the chambers.
- The heart wall has three layers - the outer epicardium, middle muscular myocardium, and inner endothelial endocardium.
- The heart is supplied by the right and left coronary arteries and drains into the coronary sinus vein.
- Nerves from the autonomic nervous system
The circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system, transports blood throughout the body using the heart and blood vessels. The heart pumps blood through arteries, which branch into smaller vessels called capillaries where nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and waste are exchanged. Veins then return deoxygenated blood back to the heart. The circulatory system helps transport nutrients, oxygen, hormones, removes waste, regulates temperature and pH, and maintains homeostasis in the body.
The thoracic duct is the main lymphatic vessel that transports lymph from throughout the body. It begins at the cisterna chyli where it collects lymph from the lower body and abdomen. It ascends through the thorax, traveling along the vertebral column and passing through the diaphragm. In the neck, it arches forward and drains into the left subclavian vein. The thoracic duct transports around 4 liters of lymph per day to return excess tissue fluid to the bloodstream.

The human respiratory system involves the inhaling of oxygen and exhaling of carbon dioxide. It is divided into an upper respiratory tract and lower respiratory tract. The upper tract includes the nose, nasal cavity, throat and voice box. The lower tract contains the lungs, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles. The lungs obtain oxygen and remove carbon dioxide via alveoli, while other parts like the diaphragm and ribs aid in breathing movements.

The document provides information on the cardiovascular system and heart anatomy. It discusses the heart chambers, which include the right and left atria and ventricles. It also describes the major blood vessels associated with the heart and the pathway of blood flow from the heart to the lungs and throughout the body. Additionally, it covers the layers of the heart wall, heart valves that prevent backflow of blood, and the conducting system which coordinates heart contractions.
Blood capillaries and lymphatic capillaries both transport fluids through diffusion and have single-layered endothelial walls, but they differ in size, permeability, and function. Blood capillaries have a uniform smaller diameter and transport oxygenated blood, while lymphatic capillaries have an irregular larger diameter and transport lymph fluid away from tissues. Lymphatic capillaries are also more permeable, have valves, and lack pericytes and basal lamina.

1) The pulmonary circulation carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and returns oxygenated blood to the heart.
2) The systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body and returns deoxygenated blood to the heart.
3) The pulmonary circuit begins in the right ventricle and ends in the left atrium, while the systemic circuit starts in the left ventricle and ends in the right atrium.
The lymphatic system helps fight infection and disease. It is composed of lymph vessels that carry lymph fluid containing white blood cells. Lymph fluid is similar to plasma but contains larger particles like bacteria and damaged cells. Lymph vessels connect to lymph nodes which filter the lymph and contain lymphocytes that fight infection. The largest lymph vessels are the thoracic duct and right lymphatic duct which drain lymph into the bloodstream. Disorders of the lymphatic system include lymphomas, lymphadenitis, and lymphedema.

The kidneys are paired organs located retroperitoneally against the posterior abdominal wall. Each kidney filters blood to remove waste and regulate fluid and electrolyte balance, producing urine which drains via ureters into the urinary bladder, a muscular organ in the pelvis. The bladder stores urine then empties via the urethra, a muscular tube running through the pelvis to exit the body.
The urinary system consists of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. The kidneys filter waste from the blood and regulate fluid and electrolyte balance. Urine travels from the kidneys down the ureters into the muscular urinary bladder, which stores urine until emptying through the urethra. The urinary system works to eliminate waste from the body and maintain homeostasis.
The respiratory system consists of the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. It can be divided structurally into the upper respiratory system including the nose, pharynx, and associated structures, and the lower respiratory system including the larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. Functionally, it consists of the conducting zone which filters, warms, and moistens air, and the respiratory zone within the lungs where gas exchange occurs. The organs work together to bring air into the lungs, exchange gases, and exhale carbon dioxide.
The lymphatic system consists of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and lymph organs such as the spleen and thymus. It works with the circulatory system to return excess tissue fluid to the bloodstream and transports white blood cells to fight infection. Lymph vessels collect fluid from tissues into lymph nodes which filter the lymph and expose antigens to immune cells before lymph drains into the bloodstream via lymph ducts. The spleen and thymus are also involved in immune functions like filtering blood and maturation of immune cells.
The document describes the anatomy and mechanism of the human respiratory system. It outlines the main organs - nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, and lungs. It explains that the nose warms and filters air before it reaches the lungs. The lungs contain bronchi and bronchioles that facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between inhaled air and blood. The document also describes the process of inspiration where intercostal muscles and the diaphragm expand the chest cavity to inhale air, and expiration where they relax to exhale air from the lungs.
The lymphatic system includes lymph, lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, tonsils, spleen and thymus gland. It works with the circulatory system to drain fluid from tissues, absorb fats from the digestive system, and produce immune cells. Lymph is a colorless fluid containing lymphocytes that is formed from blood filtration and transported through lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes, which filter the lymph and produce more lymphocytes before the lymph returns to blood vessels. The thoracic duct and right lymphatic duct are the major lymphatic vessels that drain lymph from the body and empty into veins near the heart.
The circulatory system transports blood around the body via arteries, veins, and capillaries. The blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets suspended in plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen and carbon dioxide via hemoglobin. White blood cells help fight infection. Platelets help with clotting to prevent blood loss from injuries. The heart pumps blood through the closed loop system in a double circulatory pathway. The lymphatic system drains lymph fluid and transports white blood cells. Coronary heart disease can result from risk factors like smoking, fatty diet, stress, and lack of exercise.

The document describes the key components and functions of the respiratory system. It explains that the respiratory system brings oxygen into the body through a series of organs including the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. In the lungs, oxygen passes from the air into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the air to be exhaled. The document provides details on the structure and roles of various respiratory organs like the sinuses, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs.
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.
The respiratory system allows oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to exit through a series of organs. Air enters through the nose and mouth, then travels through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, and bronchi into the lungs. In the lungs, oxygen passes into blood in the alveoli and carbon dioxide passes out of the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled. Breathing is facilitated by the contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm and rib cage, which decreases and increases the volume of the chest cavity to inhale and exhale air.
The document discusses the key components and functions of the respiratory system. It defines important terms like alveoli, bronchi, epiglottis, larynx, and lists the main parts of the respiratory tract including the nose, mouth, pharynx, larynx, trachea, lungs. It describes gas exchange that occurs in the alveoli and capillaries of the lungs and identifies structures involved in breathing like the ribs and diaphragm. The document also briefly discusses common respiratory diseases like COPD, lung cancer, and pneumonia.
The respiratory system allows for oxygen to enter the body and carbon dioxide to exit through a series of major organs. Air enters through the nose or mouth and passes through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and into the lungs where gas exchange occurs in the alveoli. Oxygen then passes into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide passes out of the bloodstream and is exhaled. Breathing is facilitated by the contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm and rib cage which expands and contracts the chest cavity to inhale and exhale air.
The document discusses the human respiratory system. It describes the important parts like the lungs, throat, nostrils, and diaphragm. It explains that the respiratory system can be divided into an upper respiratory tract and a lower respiratory tract. The upper tract includes the nose, nasal cavity, mouth and oral cavity, which work to warm and filter air before it reaches the lungs. The lower tract includes the lungs, bronchioles and alveoli, where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with blood. Key functions of the respiratory system include breathing to move oxygen into the body and remove carbon dioxide from cells.
The respiratory system allows for gas exchange in animals. It consists of organs and structures used for breathing. In land animals, gas exchange occurs in microscopic air sacs called alveoli in the lungs. Air flows from the nose and pharynx into the trachea, bronchi and bronchioles before reaching the alveoli. External respiration is the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and blood. Internal respiration is the exchange between blood and tissues. Normal human respiration is nasal, diaphragmatic, slow at 12 breaths per minute at rest, and imperceptible. Each breath has a tidal volume of 500ml and the respiratory cycle involves inspiration and expiration over 1.5-2 seconds each.
The respiratory system allows for the intake of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide through a series of organs. Air enters the nose or mouth and passes through the pharynx, larynx, trachea and bronchi into tiny air sacs in the lungs called alveoli. In the alveoli, oxygen passes into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide passes out of the bloodstream and into the air that is then exhaled. Breathing is facilitated by the contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm and rib cage which expands and contracts the lungs and chest cavity, drawing air in during inhalation and pushing it out during exhalation.

Air enters the nose and mouth, then passes through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and into air sacs called alveoli in the lungs. In the alveoli, oxygen passes into blood vessels and carbon dioxide passes out of blood vessels, allowing for gas exchange. Breathing is driven by the contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm and rib cage, inhaling air into the lungs and exhaling air out.
The respiratory system has several key functions including gas exchange, conducting air to the lungs, and protecting the system. It is organized into upper and lower systems based on location, and conducting and gas exchange areas based on function. Key structures include the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and alveoli where gas exchange occurs. The lungs are surrounded by pleura and separated by pleural cavities containing fluid for lubrication during breathing.
The document provides an overview of the respiratory system, including its anatomy and physiology. It describes the upper respiratory tract including the nose, sinuses, pharynx and larynx. It then describes the lower respiratory tract including the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, lungs and alveoli. It discusses the mechanisms of ventilation including inspiration and expiration. It also summarizes several diagnostic tests for evaluating respiratory function such as arterial blood gases, pulmonary function tests, sputum analysis, chest imaging and biopsies.
The respiratory system allows for the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. It consists of the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. The lungs contain alveoli where gas exchange takes place between inhaled air and blood in capillaries. During inhalation, contraction of the diaphragm and expansion of the rib cage lower pressure in the chest cavity, drawing air into the lungs. Exhalation occurs passively as the diaphragm and rib cage relax, raising pressure and pushing air out.
The respiratory system works to deliver oxygen to the body and remove carbon dioxide. It includes the mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, lungs, trachea, bronchi, and diaphragm. Air enters through the nose or mouth and travels down the trachea to the lungs, where oxygen passes into blood vessels and carbon dioxide is removed. The lungs, trachea, and bronchi form a branching tree structure ending in tiny air sacs called alveoli that facilitate gas exchange with blood in the pulmonary circulation. The diaphragm and intercostal muscles help drive breathing by expanding the lungs and lowering their pressure.
Johny's A&P structure and function of respiratory systemJohny Kutty Joseph
The respiratory system allows for breathing and gas exchange. It is divided into the upper and lower respiratory tract. The upper tract includes the nose, mouth, larynx, and pharynx. The lower tract includes the trachea, bronchi, and lungs. The lungs contain bronchioles and alveoli where gas exchange occurs. During breathing, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles work to expand and contract the lungs and chest cavity to inhale and exhale air.
The document provides information about asthma including:
- Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways causing airway hyperresponsiveness, swelling of the airway lining, and excess mucus production. This results in narrowing of the airways and difficulty breathing.
- Over 300 million people worldwide have asthma, including an estimated 18 million people in India. Asthma prevalence varies globally and is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.
- Risk factors for asthma include family history, exposure to cigarette smoke and air pollution, and living in urban or industrial areas. The causes of asthma involve an interaction between genetic and environmental triggers.
The respiratory system consists of the airways, lungs, and respiratory muscles that mediate air flow into and out of the body. Within the lungs, oxygen and carbon dioxide are passively exchanged between air and blood through diffusion. The system also helps maintain acid-base balance by efficiently removing carbon dioxide from the blood. Air flows through the upper respiratory tract into the lower respiratory tract and lungs where gas exchange occurs in the alveoli.

It describes the pathway of air from the nose through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and into the lungs. Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli where oxygen diffuses into blood and carbon dioxide diffuses out. The document also discusses lung volumes, the mechanics of breathing, and some common respiratory diseases like asthma, anoxia and tuberculosis.
The respiratory system of poultry includes nasal openings, nasal passages, trachea, bronchi, lungs, and air sacs. It differs from mammals in that poultry have complete tracheal rings, an organ of phonation at the trachea bifurcation rather than near the pharynx, fixed non-expanding lungs, and air sacs that extend into pneumatic bones. Respiration involves inspiration through bronchi and expiration through air sacs, facilitating gas exchange through the lungs. Thermoregulation occurs via radiation, conduction, convection, and evaporation from the respiratory tract.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

2. INTRODUCTION
Our body tissue utilize inhaled oxygen for metabolic purposes and produce carbon
di oxide in the process.
The main aim of the respiratory system is to extract oxygen from the atmosphere
and supply it to body tissues and take out CO2 from the tissues and expel it into the
atmosphere.
Respiration is thus a process, which involves exchange of gases between the
atmosphere and blood and cells.

7. 1. NASAL CAVITY
It is divided into right and left portions by means of nasal septum.
The nasal cavity is lined by mucous membranes.
The entrance to nasal cavity is formed by anterior nares (nostrils).
They contain small hairs which act as filters for dust.
The back of nasal cavities contain posterior nares.
They form the entrance to naso-pharynx.

10. 4. TRACHEA (WIND PIPE)
It is a cylindrical tube which is about 11 cm.
It begins at the lower end of pharynx.
At the level of 5th thoracic vertebra, it divides into two bronchi.
Trachea is made of sixteen to twenty C-shaped incomplete cartilages.
These cartilages are connected by fibrous tissue at the back.
The trachea is lined by mucous membrane made of ciliated epithelium.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
11. 5. BRONCHI
The trachea ends by dividing into two bronchi, namely right and left bronchi.
They pass to the corresponding lung.
The right bronchus is shorter and wider than the left.
Bronchi are made of complete rings of cartilage.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
12. 6. BRONCHIOLES
They are formed by the division of bronchi.
Bronchioles are the finest branches of bronchi.
Bronchioles do not have cartilage.
They are lined by cuboidal epithelium.
The smallest parts of these branches are called bronchioles, which are a part of
the lower respiratory system.
The terminal parts of the bronchioles contain alveoli which is the place where gas
exchange occurs.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
13. 7. ALVEOLI (AIR SACS)
They are the final terminations of each bronchus.
They contain a thin layer of epithelial cells surrounded by numerous capillaries.
Exchange of gases takes place through the walls of these capillaries.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
15. THE LUNGS
These are two lungs. They are cone shaped organs that lie in the thoracic cavity.
The lungs are separated by the heart and the great blood vessels.
The space between the two lungs is called mediastinum.
Each lung has an apex and a base.
The lungs are convex on he outer surface and concave on the inner surface.
The right lung is divided into three lobes. i.e. superior lobe, middle lobe and inferior
lobe.
The left lung is divided into two lobes, i.e. superior lobe and inferior lobe.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
16. THE LUNGS
The convex surface of the lung which is called the costal surface is smooth and
follows the shape of the chest wall.
The concave surface is called the medial surface.
The lung is covered by a serous membrane known as pleura, which is composed of
epithelial cells.
The pleura are divided into two layers:-
1. Parietal
Pleura
2. Visceral
Pleura
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
17. THE LUNGS
The parietal pleura line the ribs, sternum, costal cartilage, and the intercostal muscle fibers
and also cover the superior surface of the diaphragm.
The visceral pleura are completely attached to the lungs covering the lung surface.
It also enters into fissures, assists for dividing the lungs into respective lobes.
At the base of the lung, it is reflected backward to form parietal pleura.
The flattened epithelial cells secrete a serous fluid which occupies the space between the two
layers, i.e. the pleural cavity.
This fluid reduces friction between the two membranes and allows them to slide easily over
one on another during respiration.
The internal structure of the lung shows bronchi, bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveoli,
pulmonary artery, and bronchial artery, branches of vagus nerve, pulmonary veins, bronchial
veins and lymphatic vessels. These structures occupy the lobules of the lungs.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
18. ROOT OF THE LUNGS
The medical surface of each lung has a vertical slit called hylum.
Structures like blood vessels, nerves and lymphatics pass through the hylum.
These structures together constitute the root of the lung.
The root of lung is formed by:
1. Pulmonary arteries:- Which carry impure blood to the lungs from heart.
2. Pulmonary Veins:- Which carry oxygenated blood from lungs to the heart.
3. Bronchial Arteries:- Which are branches of thoracic aorta. They carry arterial
blood which nourishes the substance of lung tissue.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
19. ROOT OF THE LUNGS
• Which returns venous blood of lungs to superior vena
cava.
Bronchial Veins
• Which divide into bronchioles.
Bronchi
• A thin tube that carries lymph (lymphatic fluid) and white
blood cells through the lymphatic system. Also called
lymphatic vessel.
Lymphatic Vessels and
Lymph Glands
• Sympathetic and vagus nerve which supply the lungs.
Nerves
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
20. MECHANISM OF RESPIRATION
Inspiration (or breathing in):-
It is an active process. It is produced by the contraction of the following muscles:
Diaphragm, the contraction of which enlarges the chest cavity vertically (i.e., from
above downwards).
Intercostal muscles when contract produce elevation of ribs and sternum. This
enlarges the chest cavity in all the other four sides.
The lungs expand at this stage and fill this increased space. Now, the pressure in the
lungs is less than atmospheric pressure. So air flows into the lungs.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
21. MECHANISM OF RESPIRATION
Expiration (or breathing out):-
It is a passive process.
It is produced by the relaxation of diaphragm and intercostal muscles.
This produces reduction in the size of chest cavity.
So the pressure in the lungs increases which forces the air out.
The rate of respiration is 16 to 18 per minutes in adults.
The rate is higher in children.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
23. REGULATION OF RESPIRATION
Respiration is regulated by two controls:
1. Nervous Control
2. Chemical Control
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
24. NERVOUS CONTROL
It is exerted by respiratory centre present in the medulla oblongata of brain.
From this centre afferent impulses pass to:
1. Diaphragm through phrenic nerve.
2. Intercostal muscles through intercostal nerves.
These impulses cause rhythmic contraction of diaphragm and intercostal muscles.
Efferent impulses arise due to the distension of air sacs. They are carried by vagus
to the respiratory centre.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
25. CHEMICAL CONTROL
This is efferent through carbon di oxide content of blood.
An increase in the level of carbon di oxide produces stimulation of the respiratory
centre.
A decrease in carbon di oxide level produces the opposite effect.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
26. REFLEX MECHANISM
Carotid body and aortic body chemoreceptor:-
Some chemoreceptors also regulate respiration reflexly. These receptors are
present in:
oCarotid Body:- Which lies in the bifurcation of common carotid artery.
oAortic Body:- Which is at the foot of subclavian artery.
These two bodies contain the ending of sensory nerves which run in vagus nerve.
In carbon di oxide level of blood stimulate these bodies. The impulses are then
carried to the respiratory centre which is also stimulated.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
27. HERING-BREUER REFLEX
The lungs
contain
some
stretch
receptors.
Expansion
of the
lungs
stimulates
these
receptors.
These
impulses
now inhibit
the
respiratory
centre.
So
inspiration
stops.
Now the
lungs
collapse
and there
is no
stretch.
So
inhibition
of the
respiratory
centre
through
vagus also
stops.
Inspiration
starts
again.
This reflex
is called
Hering-
Breuer
Reflex.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
28. RESPIRATORY VOLUMES
The contraction of diaphragm and intercostal muscles produces
expansion of the chest cavity.
So air enters into the lungs during inspiration.
A forced inspiration can produce additional expansion.
So more air can enter the lungs.
Similarly, a forced expiration can expel an extra volume of air.
Even after a forced expiration, some air still remains in the lungs.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
29. VARIOUS RESPIRATORY VOLUME
1. Vital
Capacity
• It is defined
as the
volume of
air that can
be expelled
by a forced
expiration
after a
forced
inspiration
(Nor- mal
value is 4
litres).
2. Tidal Air
• It is the
volume of
air passing
in and out
of the lungs
with
ordinary
quiet
breathing
(Normal
value is 0.5
litres).
3. Inspiratory
Reserve
• It is the
additional
volume of
air that can
be taken in
by forced
inspiration
(Normal
value is 2.5
litres).
4. Expiratory
Reserve
• It is the
volume of
air that can
be expelled
by forced
expiration
after normal
inspiration
(Normal
value is 1
liter).
5. Residual
Volume
• It is the
volume of
air which
remains in
the lungs on
forced
expiration
after normal
inspiration
(Normal
value is 1
liter).
6. Total Lung
Capacity
• It is the sum
of vital
capacity
and residual
volume.
(Normal
value is 5
litres).
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
30. EXCHANGE OF GASES
It occurs in two stages:
Exchange between tissues and blood.
Exchange between alveoli and blood
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
31. EXCHANGE BETWEEN TISSUES AND BLOOD
This is called as tis- sue or internal respiration.
The oxygen tension of pure blood supplying the tissues is high (100 mm Hg.)
But the oxygen tension of tissues is low (40 mm Hg.).
So oxygen of blood goes to tissues.
The carbon-di-oxide tension is more in tissues than in blood.
So carbon-di-oxide goes out from the tissues to blood.
Now blood containing more carbon-di-oxide is taken back to the heart by venous
system.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
32. EXCHANGE BETWEEN ALVEOLI AND BLOOD
It is called as pulmonary or external respiration.
The oxygen tension in the alveolar air is high (100 mm Hg).
But oxygen tension of blood in the capillaries is low.
Due to the pressure difference, oxygen of alveoli enters into blood.
Similarly carbon-di-oxide tension of capillary blood is higher than in alveoli.
So carbon-di-oxide enters into alveoli and it is breathed out through the expired air.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
33. ABNORMAL TYPE OF RESPIRATION
Apnea
• Stopping of
respiration for
short intervals.
Hyperpnea
• Increase in
depth of
respiration.
Dyspnea
• Difficulty in
breathing.
Polypnea
• Respiration
characterized
by rapid rate.
Tachypnea
• Exceedingly
high rate of
respiration.
Cheyne-
Stokes
respirations
• A rare
abnormal
breathing
pattern.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
34. ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION
It is employed when respiration fails due to drowning, carbon monoxide poisoning
etc.
Artificial respiration must be given immediately when respiration fails.
Most methods employed are designed to increase and decrease the capacity of
thorax.
So air can be drawn into the lungs and expelled.
PAWAN KUMAR SAHU LECTURER AT RUDAULI COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
35. THE FOLLOWING ARE A FEW METHODS OF
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION
3. Instrumental methods:
They are Drinker's method, Bragg- Paul's method and Iron lung method. These methods can be carried out only in
hospitals.
