Homework Due TodayHomework Due Today Read 33.3 – The Respiratory System Define Larynx Pharynx Trachea Diaphragm
4
Homework ReviewHomework Review Larynx Contains 2 highly elastic folds of tissue known as the vocal cords Pharynx Cavity at the back of the mouth in which air passes Trachea Windpipe Diaphragm At the bottom of the chest cavity; large dome-shaped muscle responsible for creating ‘negative pressure’ to allow for respiration

Homework Due FridayHomework Due Friday Read 35.1 Answer questions 1a, 1b, 2a on page 1013
6
Respiratory SystemRespiratory System WWhat does it do? PPicks up oxygen from air we inhale RRelease Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) in the air we exhale
7
Respiratory System Structures Nose Pharynx Larynx Trachea Lungs Bronchus Bronchioles Alveoli
8
Gas ExchangeGas Exchange What gases need to be “exchanged”? Alveoli – End of air flow Oxygen dissolves into moisture, then diffuses across capillary walls into blood Diffuses across because the oxygen concentration is less inside the blood CO 2 diffuses into alveoli from capillaries because the concentration of CO 2 is less in the alveoli

10
Flowchart Exercise!Flowchart Exercise! Using the given words, create a flowchart to show the passage of oxygen into the blood stream Bronchioles Larynx Nose Alveoli Pharynx Bronchus Capillary Trachea
11
Diffusion Moving from high concentration to low concentration 100 people in Athletic Office “Passive Process” Diffusion of oxygen occurs until concentrations are the same Hemoglobin binds to dissolved oxygen, removing it from plasma, allowing for more diffusion 60 times more!
12
Breathing Majority of breathing is voluntary However, whether conscious or unconscious, nervous system has the ‘final say’ Medulla oblongata Helps the body function when unconscious Breathing BP Heart rate
13
Smoking & Respiratory System 3 most dangerous substances Nicotine Carbon Monoxide Tar
14
Smoking Nicotine Addictive stimulant Increases HR and BP Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisonous gas Blocks hemoglobin from binding with oxygen Tar Contains at least 60 compounds known to cause cancer
