COMPREHENSION Respiratory system
The respiratory system is made up of the organs in your body that help you to breathe. The
primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen for the blood to
deliver oxygen to all parts of the body.
As you breathe in or inhale, you fill these sacs with fresh oxygen-rich air. Your heart pumps
blood into the walls of your lungs where it absorbs oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.
As you exhale, or breathe out, you release the carbon dioxide-rich air into space around
you. With each breath you take, you are taking oxygen in, and putting carbon dioxide out.
Respiration is achieved through the mouth, nose, trachea, lungs, bronchi and diaphragm.
The main organ in your respiratory system are your lungs. Although some respiratory diseases
can’t be prevented, many chronic lung and respiratory illnesses can be prevented by
avoiding smoking, staying away from pollutants and irritants, washing hands often to avoid
infections, and getting regular medical checkups.
