1.1Analysing thehumanbreathingmechanism.Observe models or computersoftware to identify the structure ofthe human respiratory systemwhich consists of the nasal cavity,trachea, bronchus, lungs, ribs,diaphragm and the intercostalmuscles.Examine a model of a lung toidentify the bronchus, bronchioleand alveolus.Build a functional model of thehuman respiratory system to showthe relationship between the airpressure in the thoracic cavity andthe process of inhalation andexhalation.Discuss the breathing mechanism.A student is able to:



identify the structure of thehuman respiratory system,



identify the structure of thelung,



describe the process ofinhalation and exhalation,





describe the breathingmechanism.The contractionand relaxation ofthe internal andexternal intercostalmuscles

are notrequired.

describe the diffusion of oxygenfrom the alveoli into the bloodcapillaries,



describe the transport of oxygenby blood,



describe the diffusion of oxygenfrom the blood capillaries intothe cells.diffusion –

peresapan

1.3Realising theimportance ofa healthyrespiratorysystem.Collect and interpret data on thefollowing:a) substances that are harmful tothe respiratory system, i.e.nicotine and tar (from thesmoke of cigarettes), sulphurdioxide (from factories), andcarbon monoxide (from thesmoke of vehicles) and haze,b) effects of harmful substancessuch as toxin and carcinogenon the respiratory system,c) diseases of the respiratorysystem.A student is able to:



list the substances which areharmful to the respiratorysystem,



explain the effects of pollutantson the respiratory system,



list the diseases that affect therespiratory system,



practise good habits to improvethe quality of air.carcinogen –

karsinogen

toxin –
