HOW DOES RESPIRATORY 10 Facts About Respiratory
ORGANS INVOLVED : SYSTEM WORKS?
❖ The nose Trachea: It helps to filter the air.
❖ The pharynx Bronchi: A left and right tube,
❖ The larynx (which is split off from the trachea to feed
air into each lung.
also known as voice
box) Bronchioles: Tiny tubes branch off
❖ The nasal conchae from the bronchi that extends
throughout all of your lungs.
(which are also called
as turbinates) Alveoli: Tiny air sacs that connect
❖ The bronchi to each bronchiole,blood passes
❖ The lungs through,exchanging fresh oxygen
from the air for carbon dioxide
❖ The trachea (which is
collected from the body’s cells in
usually referred to as
red blood cells, and then carried
the windpipe) back to the lungs and exhaled.
❖ The muscles of

system:
1. The left lung is smaller than
the right lung
2. The nose traps particles in the
air.
3. The lungs are not responsible
for inhaling and exhaling,
because diaphragm controls
the filling and emptying of the
lungs.
4. We take around 22,000
breaths a day.
5. one lung would reach almost
the size of a tennis court.
6. Women have smaller lungs
than men
7. Lung are not clean
8. Lungs are the only organ that
can float in water
9. There’s always air in our lungs
10. There are tiny hairs in our

Two Disorders /Diseases of the
human body system
● Trachea asthma
Treatments:Avoid exposure to
allergen and other asthma
triggers. Bronchoscopy tracheal
dilation: through a bronchoscope
(used to examine the light inside
the airway), a balloon or tracheal
dilator is used to dilate (stretch)
the trachea and immediately
relieve airway obstruction
● Lung cancer
Treatments:Excision of the lung
or most of the lungs.Use drugs to
shrink or eradicate cancer
cells.Use high energy rays to kill
cancer cells

other system
1:Respiratory system and
circulatory system
Air enters the lungs through the
trachea, bronchi and bronchioles.
Blood enters and exits the lungs
through the pulmonary arteries and
veins that connect to the heart.The
pulmonary arteries transport hypoxic
blood from the heart to the lungs,
which carry oxygenated blood back to
the heart and distribute it to the body.
