Respiratory system
• Nerve supply is essential in maintaining
breathing and in reflexly adjusting the level of
ventilation to match changing needs for O2
uptake and CO2 removal.
• Can be voluntarily modified (speaking,
singing, whistling, playing a wind instrument,
or holding one’s breath while swimming)
