How do you process the air you breathe before it gets into your lungs?

All I can say is that when you breath in, you take in air and extract the oxygen. When you exhale you're letting out the nitrogen that was with the oxygen in the air. The oxygen then goes to your blood. How this happens? I can't say.
Sorry.

Your trachea, or windpipe, allows air to come into your body and through your lungs. If food gets trapped inside your trachea, you cannot breathe.
How does respiration work in plants and animals?
Most animals breathe the same way humans do, with lungs. Fish use gills, which strip oxygen from water and lets the water pass through them. Plants obtain energy via a process called photosynthesis. The plant gets energy from sunlight, water and carbon dioxide and expels oxygen, which we breathe.
