The Respiratory System: The Diagram

The Passage of Air Trachea Structure: Tube of many cartilage rings. Purpose: Maintains structure for passing air so that it does not collapse.

Cilia and Mucous Lining Cilia Structure: Hair-like projections Purpose: Moves mucus up towards the pharynx Mucous Lining Purpose: Traps contaminants such as dust or pollen These two structures help keep the lung system clean. commons/thumb/6/69/250px- Bronchiolar_epithelium_3_- _SEM.jpg

The Passage of Air The Bronchial Tree Structure: Made of cartilage. Trachea divides into two branches: bronchi. Then divide into "twigs": bronchioles. Then twigs open up to alveoli at the ends. Purpose: Spread air from trachea over as much area as possible.

The End of the Line Alveoli Structure: Alveoli are small clustered sacks at the end of the bronchioles. They are one cell thick and are covered in capillaries. Have a pulmonary surfactant layer.

The End of the Line Alveoli Purpose: Used for diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide in between the blood and the lungs. The spherical clusters increase surface area for diffusion. Thin walls allow passive transport a quick process. Lots of Capillaries increase contact with blood. Pulmonary surfactant prevents collapse during exhalation. espiratorySystem/HumanRespiratory/humrespsys3.gif

Red Blood Cells Absorbs Oxygen - O2 diffuses from alveoli into the capillaries and into the red blood cells -O2 enters the blood through inhaling Releases Carbon Dioxide -CO2 diffuses from red blood cells through the capillary walls into alveoli. -CO2 is released by exhaling Hemoglobin- a protein molecule in red blood cells that moves oxygen from lungs to body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from tissues to lungs
