What is the funcion of lungs?
Lungs are organs of purifying oxygen in the body, they breath in i.e. inspiration, the fresh air carrying oxygen, and breath out i.e expiration the CO2
How does the concentration of gases change throughout the respiratory system?
Well, first you lungs breath in and breath out air. (Inhale is to breath in Oxygen)(Exhale is to breath out carbon dioxide or wastes) Your lungs have aveioli. These are inside of the lungs. They help collect nutrients from your food. Then all the wastes are exhaled from the lungs. But, where does this all start out from? When you breath in. And out. It happens in a matter of seconds. Your body works so well. Just think about it. Your body can move that fast. Everytime you breath in and breath out. Well, the air or oxygen moves to the lungs, then aveioli collects the nutrients, this is then moved into your blood. Fascinating, huh? Your blood then uses that nutrients to help the rest of your body!

the oxygen in your blood comes from the air you breath in . It goes in through your mouth into the lungs and the oxygen gets taken out from the lungs into the cappilaries.
