Why can't you see the air you breathe?
I have seen the air- you have to look very closely/deeply and look where there is a blank backround so there are no distractions- you can also try looking at the blue sky- no clouds- you can see particles moving and bouncing off each other.
How does the cardiovascular and respiratory systems work together to produce movement?
The muscles and bones work together to produce movement but without oxygen and a good heart rate movement would not be possible either.
What are the cause of stop breathing?
Stoppage of breathing may caused by obstruction in the throat. Don't waste time and do the following:
1. Remove the belt and loose all the clothing of the patient. This will help in the quick recovery of breathing.
2. Tilt the patient's head and remove all obstructions in the air passage.
3. Apply artificial respiration.
Cilia are the tiny hairs that sweep dust and dirt out of the respiratory system.
Why does our breathing rate go down when we feel drowsy?
Because we are at rest and our body does need so much energy to do.
the nervous system sends little signals to the butt and the butt sends arrows to the respitory so you can breath fire. the fire turns on the cardivascular system

Why rate of respiration increases while walking uphill?
Respiration is the process that transfers oxygen + glucose -> carbon dioxide + water + energy. It takes place in the mitochondria in your cells.
To be able to walk you need energy. This energy, as you can see from the equation above is only created if your cells are respiring (converting the food you eat and the oxygen in the air you breath into the waste carbon dioxide you expel when you breath out with a little water vapour and the all important energy)
Therefore when you are walking, you are moving more, and so require more energy and so your body increases the rate of respiration so you can create enough energy to keep you walking and doing all the other bodily functions you do without realising.
How is the thoracic pressure decreased during inspiration?
Inspiration causes a drop in thoracic pressure, so the blood pressure in the area may drop, so the feeling of the pulse may feel weaker (though this would have to be an extreme case). It also can cause splitting of the second heart sound as the lungs take in more blood.
They look like bunch of grapes, only on a microscopic level.
What to do if you stop breathing?
You will die. Your respiratory system helps you breathe. If you do not have oxygen for about over a few minutes most people will die. Hope I could help. I am doing a whole big project on the respiratory system
What is a voice box or larynx?
The larynx is commonly known as the "voicebox."
The medical term for the voice box is the larynx.
The larynx is the voice box. This is why you get hoarse when you have laryngitis, which is inflammation of the larynx.
What are the parts that make up cardiovascular system and the respiratory system?
The cardio-respiratory system consists of the cardio vascular system (heart and blood vessels) together with respiratory system (lungs and air ways).
anything other than those are NOT component of the The cardio-respiratory system.
The respiratory membrane is a combination of?
alveolar and capillary walls and their fused basement membranes
How can fainting be prevented?
There is no way to stop someone from fainting, but there is a way to prevent someone from fainting. First, you make sure that the person isn't dehydrated and has plenty of water. Lack of water can cause someone to faint. Becoming too hot and sweaty too fast can also cause someone to lose consciousness, if this happens you need to make sure that no one is covering the person, because he/she will need air. Also, pouring water on them will help to cool them off, therefore making the person come back to consciousness faster.
There are many different ways that you can help avoid fainting.
1. it could be from dehydration so you should always drink lots of fluids
2. it could also be from a medical disease if you know that you are well hydrated you should see your doctor and talk to them about it
3. If standing at attention, do not lock your knees.
How does holding your breath effect blood pH?
When you are hyperventilating or breathing at a very accelerated rate, your body is expelling carbon dioxide faster than your body can produce it. This causes the blood's pH to RISE, thus making it more alkaline, which initiates a restriction of the blood vessels. This prevents the transportation of oxygen to the brain and other areas of the nervous system so the patient tries to get more oxygen; exacerbating the problem.
A solution to hyperventilation could be to breathe into a paper bag so that you are breathing in carbon dioxide and keeping the blood's pH at a normal level.
Does exhalation occur when the diaphragm and rib cage muscles relax?
Yes, exhalation occurs when the diaphragm and muscles of the rib cage relax.
Does your diaphragm contract and move down when you inhale or exhale?
you inhale when your diaphragm contracts.
Are your ribs a part of the respiratory system?
In your respiratory system, you have ribs and you have a diaphragm. You can make your rib cage expand and contract. You can push your diaphragm into your lungs and you can push your diaphragm out. With your rib cage expanded and your diaphragm all the way out, your lungs fill with air. With your rib cage totally contracted and your diaphragm pushed into your chest, you have emptied almost all the air from your lungs.
A large number of people do not use their rib cage to breathe. Opera singers make tremendous use of it. Most people have 3 to 4 minutes worth of oxygen in their blood stream. By using both their rib cage and diaphragm, opera singers can get a few more minutes worth of oxygen into their blood stream. You would pass out if you had to sing a note for 3 1/2 minutes. That is what the ribs can do.
Why is the respiratory system important for humans?
The reason the respiratory system is important is because we would not live without air. Breathing is something you need in your body. How it works is when you inhale O2, it goes through trachea, follows through bronchial & end at alveoli. --> O2 --> CO2
What describes the human respiratory system?
The respiratory system is composed of moist passageways that permit air to flow from the external environment to the lungs. In the lungs, blood vessels carrying CO2 on hemoglobin molecules releases the CO2 at the alveoli in exchange for O2. The CO2 is breathed out through the lungs, while the fresh O2 travels through the bloodstream to the cells in all parts of the body. (The first sentence is an extremely simplified and narrow description of the respiratory system, which is much more complicated.)
What is the leaf-shaped cartilage that covers the larynx during swallowing is the?
The cartilage covering the opening of the larynx is called the epiglottis. It keeps food or liquids from entering the larynx when we swallow.
