CHAPTER 1: RESPIRATION Date:

(A) Human Breathing Mechanism

Illustrate a concept map of human respiratory system

TITLE:
Identify each function of each organ:

Nasal Cavity:
The Process

Trachea:

Human Bronchus,
Bronchiole, Alveolus,
Bronchus:

Bronchiole:

Alveolus:

Intercostal mucles:

Ribs:

Diaphragm:
Process:
Process:
 Laboratory Activities

Identify the analogous from each apparatus

 Comparison between inhalation & exhalation process

Inhalation mechanism Part involved Exhalation mechanism

External intercostal muscles

Internal intercostal muscles

Movement of ribs

Diaphragm muscle

Volume of thoracic cavity

Air pressure in the thoracic

cavity compared with
atmospheric pressure on the
outside
Air movement

Laboratory Activities

When the handle is pulled The occurrence that takes When the handle is
down place released

Volume in bell jar

Air pressure in bell jar

Movement of air
(B) Transportation of Oxygen in the Human Body

I. The process of gaseous exchange

Why the alveolus is
efficient in gaseous
exchange?

Gaseous exchange between the alveolus & blood capillaries

How it works ?
II. Transportation of oxygen in the Blood

Cell Respiration

for

Glucose + Oxygen
How ??
+ +
1. ________in the inhaled air that is taken into the alveolus in the lungs will diffuse
into the __________________.
2. In the blood, the oxygen will _________ with the ___________ in the red blood
cells to from ______________.
3. The ___________ blood is carried to the ________ from the lungs and pumped
to whole body cells.
4. When ___________ reaches the body _______ it decomposes to release
__________. The oxygen the __________ into the cells.
5. In the body cells, the oxygen is used for ___________.
6. Cell respiration is _________________________________________ in the body
cells to release _______, ___________ & form water.
7. The energy produces is used for daily activities like walking and maintaining body
temperature.
8. The carbon dioxide produced is carried by ____________ blood (blood without
oxygen) to the lung to be eliminated.
III. Importance of a Healthy Respiratory System

Material Observation Analysis

Thermometer The temperature rose Because the cigarette

smoke is hot

White cotton wool

Hydrogen carbonate
indicator

Give the symptoms from the illness of the respiratory system:

1. Lung emphysema:

2. Bronchitis:

3. Astma:
