Hi I am O2 ,you can call

me oxygen, and I will be your guide today.
I advise you keep all feet
and hands inside the ride at all times.
 You may be asking, what is the Respiratory
system? Well, the Respiratory system is the system
Respiratory Intro

that helps you breath in and out, so oxygen (02) can

be pumped through your body and carbon dioxide
(CO2) can be removed from the blood stream. You
must remember that the Respiratory system is made
up of many different organs.
Where are we?
Here We Go!!!

Bronchioles pass air to

and from your alveoli.
 Here is a overview picture of
the Respiratory System.
Just go to the next slide to see it.
Respiratory Overview Picture
Now we will begin our tour.

Welcome to…
The Nose and Mouth

This is where it all begins.

This is where the oxygen first
enters your body and also where
Carbon Dioxide leaves.
The Nose and Mouth
When the air comes into your nose it gets
filtered by tiny hairs and it is moistened by the
mucus that is in your nose.

Your sinuses also help out with your

Respiratory System. They help to
Moisten and heat the air that you
breath.

Air can also get into your body

Through Your mouth/oral
cavity but air is not Filtered
as much when it
enters in through
your mouth.

The Pharynx and Trachea

Next we will head down to your pharynx

(throat) and your trachea (windpipe).
This is where the air passes from your
nose to your bronchi tubes and lungs.
 The Pharynx and Trachea
Mouth Pharynx
(Throat)

Trachea

Your pharynx (throat) gathers air after it

passes through your nose and then the air
is passed down to your trachea (windpipe)

Your trachea is held open by

“incomplete rings
of cartilage.”
Without these rings your trachea
might close off and air would not be able
to get to and from your lungs.
Where
are
We are here.
We?
The Bronchi Tubes and Bronchiole

Your trachea (windpipe) splits

up into two bronchi tubes.
These two tubes keep
splitting up and form your
bronchiole.
The Bronchi Tubes and Bronchiole

These bronchi tubes split up, like

tree branches, and get smaller and smaller
inside your lungs.

The air flows past your bronchi

Tubes and into your bronchiole.
These tubes keep getting smaller
and smaller until they
finally end with small air sacs
(called alveoli).
But we will go there later

The Alveoli and Capillary Network

Now we will head over to the

alveoli and what happens
when the air finally makes
it down there.
The Alveoli and Capillary Network
Your alveoli are tiny air sacs
that fill up with air/oxygen when you
breath in.

Your alveoli are surrounded by

many tiny blood vessels called
capillaries.

The walls of your alveoli (and capillaries)

are so thin that the oxygen
or carbon dioxide can
pass through them, traveling right
into, or out of your blood stream.
Alveoli Picture

and a Capillary

Oxygen diffuses

Dioxide diffuses
through the Capillary
membrane and
enters the alveolus.

Int ro to
Diaphr agm

Now we will look at the Diaphragm.

You might be wondering, what does
the Diaphragm do? The Diaphragm
is an important factor in breathing.
Diagram of Diaphragm
 Here is an experiment that you can try.

Diaphragm Experiment
 Air Passing over the mucus Inside the lungs the
membrane of the nasal cavity is Bronchi branch into
small tubes called
moistened, warmed, and filtered
bronchioles

The Pharynx, or throat, is

located where passages from
the nose and mouth came
together.
At the end of the bronchio
bunches of alveoli, air sacs
arranged like grapes on a s

Air enters the trachea, or

If one lobe is injured or diseased, pipe which leads to and fr
the other lobes may be able to lungs
function normally
Fun Facts
At rest, the body takes in and breathes out about 10 liters of
air each minute.
The right lung is slightly larger than the left.
The highest recorded "sneeze speed" is 165 km per hour.
The surface area of the lungs is roughly the same size as a
tennis court.
The capillaries in the lungs would extend 1,600 kilometers
if placed end to end.
We lose half a liter of water a day through breathing. This is
the water vapor we see when we breathe onto glass.
Carbon Dioxide- The waste product (gas)
that is produced through respiration of people
and animals.

Nose/Nasal Cavity- Where Oxygen first

enters your body. Tiny hairs help filter the air
and air is moistened and heated by your nose.
Your Nose leads into your Nasal Cavity
Mouth/Oral Cavity- Oxygen/air can also enter
through your Mouth but it is not filtered. Your
Mouth opens up into your Oral Cavity.

Sinus- A cavity in the bones of your skull that

helps moisten and heat the air that you breath.
 Pharynx/Throat- Gathers air from your Nasal
and Oral Cavities and passes it to your Trachea.

Trachea/Windpipe- A tube like pathway that

connects your throat to your Bronchi Tubes and
lungs.
- Air passes through it when it travels from
the Pharynx to the Bronchi Tubes.
Key Words Cont.
Bronchi Tubes- Each tube (one per lung)
splits up into many smaller tubes called
Bronchiole, like branches on a tree.

Bronchiole- Keep splitting up until they reach

your Alveoli.

Respiratory Bronchiole- The air-tubes that

are actually connected to the Alveoli.
Capillaries- Tiny blood streams (around
one cell wide) that surround your Alveoli. They
take Oxygen out of our Lungs and replace it with
Carbon Dioxide, which you later breath out.

Diaphragm- The muscle membrane that

helps you breath in and out by changing the
pressure in your chest cavity.
Alveolar Duct- The final tube, which is part of
the Alveoli, that leads to the air-sacs.

Alveolar Sac- Where the chemical change

takes place and where blood cells pick up
oxygen and drop off carbon dioxide.

Alveoli- Tiny air-sacs at the end of your

Alveolar Duct. They fill up with Oxygen and are
surrounded by Capillaries.
