Best Answer

If your respiratory system isn't working right then oxygen that would normally go to the lungs and make gas exchange happen in the alveoli, getting oxygen in to the blood and going to your heart and working muscles. So if you don't get enough oxygen coming through the respiratory system then your heart wont get enough oxygenated blood around the body through the circulatory system to the working muscles. So energy will not get to the muscles making them not as efficient as they should be.

Effective functioning of your body depends on enough oxygen available for body processes. The respiratory system provides oxygen to your body, and so protecting its health is important.

How can breathing dry air stress your respiratory?

The air entering your lungs should be at 100% humidity (at body temperature), (Your nose is designed to take care of that.) If not, then the respiratory tissues (closest to your mouth & nose) will be dried out - and they can't function if desiccated. Thus, a part of your respiratory system will be non-functional.
