1.

The lungs are a pair of breathing organs located with the chest which remove carbon
dioxide from and bring oxygen to the blood. There is a right and left lung.
2. The pericardium is a membrane, or sac, that surrounds your heart. It holds the heart
in place and helps it work properly.
3. Tiny air sacs at the end of the bronchioles (tiny branches of air tubes in the lungs).
The alveoli are where the lungs and the blood exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide
during the process of breathing in and breathing out.
4. The involuntary constriction and relaxation of the muscles of the intestine or another
canal, creating wave-like movements that push the contents of the canal forward.
5. Breathing is the process that brings oxygen in the air into your lungs and moves
oxygen and through your body. Our lungs remove the oxygen and pass it through
our bloodstream, where it's carried off to the tissues and organs that allow us to
walk, talk, and move.

1. Lungs - a group of organs and tissues that work together to help you breathe. The
respiratory system's main job is to move fresh air into your body while removing
waste gases.
2. Aorta - The aorta is important because it gives the body access to the oxygen-rich blood
it needs to survive. The heart itself gets oxygen from arteries that come off the
ascending aorta. The head (including the brain), neck and arms get oxygen from arteries
that come off the aortic arch.
3. Septum - The role of the septum is essentially similar to lane markers in a busy
highway. The septum allows the air that we breathe in through our nostrils to go directly
from the tip of the nose into the back of the nose and into the lungs.
4. Hair - The functions of hair include protection, regulation of body temperature, and
facilitation of evaporation of perspiration; hairs also act as sense organs. Hairs develop
in the fetus as epidermal downgrowths that invade the underlying dermis.
5. Esophagus - Located in your throat near your trachea (windpipe), the esophagus
receives food from your mouth when you swallow. The epiglottis is a small flap that
folds over your windpipe as you swallow to prevent you from choking (when food goes
into your windpipe)

V.
1. No because normally it's structurally impossible for a healthy human to swallow and take
inspired air in at the same time. This is because the food and fluids we swallow and the air we
breathe in both travel down the same part of our throat and esophagus until they reach the point
where our throat splits into the esophagus (food and fluids) and the trachea aka “Windpipe” (air) .
Now then it's important that the appropriate contents go down the appropriate path. Air in the
stomach leads to gas build up which leads to bloating, belching and eventually flatulence which are
all uncomfortable or socially unacceptable or both.

2.  A blood transfusion is a routine medical procedure in which donated blood is provided to you


through a narrow tube placed within a vein in your arm. This potentially life-saving
procedure can help replace blood lost due to surgery or injury. During a blood transfusion, a
healthcare professional will place a small needle into the vein, usually in the arm or hand.
The blood then moves from a bag, through a rubber tube, and into the person's vein through the
needle. They will carefully monitor vital signs throughout the procedure. It can take up to  4 hours to
complete a blood transfusion.+
