Mind Stretcher 1/30/17 What is the function of the respiratory system? Name at least two organs in this system: To take in oxygen & eliminate waste in the form of carbon dioxide Lungs, nose, trachea (windpipe), bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli

Mind Stretcher- Answer
5
Human Body: Respiratory System
Organs include: Larynx (vocal box) Trachea Bronchi Bronchioles Lungs Alveoli
6
Moving Air in and Out During inhalation the diaphragm and rib muscles contract making space for lungs to fill with O2. During exhalation, these muscles relax. The diaphragm pushes upwards & helps push CO2 out.
7
Alveoli The alveoli are moist, thin-walled pockets which are the site of gas exchange. This is where oxygen enters bloodstream & carbon dioxide exits!

Respiratory System Info:
Oxygen is essential to life. We use the oxygen we breathe and the food we eat to produce energy through CELLULAR RESPIRATION. Physical activity increases our need for energy; increasing the use of oxygen and nutrients. The body can store some of the things it needs to function. However, oxygen cannot be stored for more than a few minutes at a time. At rest, the blood holds about a quart of dissolved oxygen, but it is constantly being used by the cells to produce energy during respiration. The respiratory system must work all of the time to supply enough oxygen to the body.
