Does the tongue helps us breathe?

The tongue does not play a direct role in the act of breathing, as breathing primarily involves the lungs and the diaphragm. However, the position of the tongue can influence airflow in the mouth and throat, which may affect breathing patterns, especially during sleep. Proper tongue posture can help maintain an open airway, potentially reducing issues like snoring or sleep apnea.


What chemical triggers your brain to control breathing?

The primary chemical that triggers the brain to control breathing is carbon dioxide (CO2). As CO2 levels rise in the blood, it leads to a decrease in pH, making the blood more acidic. This change is detected by chemoreceptors in the body, which signal the brain, particularly the medulla oblongata, to increase the rate and depth of breathing to expel excess CO2 and restore normal levels. Oxygen levels also play a role, but CO2 is the main driver for regulating breathing.


What is the glottis a part of?
